--description--

auto-fit works almost identically to auto-fill. The only difference is that when the container's size exceeds the size of all the items combined, auto-fill keeps inserting empty rows or columns and pushes your items to the side, while auto-fit collapses those empty rows or columns and stretches your items to fit the size of the container.

Note: If your container can't fit all your items on one row, it will move them down to a new one.

--instructions--

In the second grid, use auto-fit with repeat to fill the grid with columns that have a minimum width of 60px and maximum of 1fr. Then resize the preview to see the difference.

--hints--

container2 class should have a grid-template-columns property with repeat and auto-fit that will fill the grid with columns that have a minimum width of 60px and a maximum of 1fr.

js
assert.match(
  code,
  /.container2\s*?{[\s\S]*grid-template-columns\s*?:\s*?repeat\s*?\(\s*?auto-fit\s*?,\s*?minmax\s*?\(\s*?60px\s*?,\s*?1fr\s*?\)\s*?\)\s*?;[\s\S]*}/gi
);
