Auto-layout columns
Auto-layout columns size themselves from their content or share space equally with no numbers needed.

<div class="row">
<div class="col">equal</div>
<div class="col-6">fixed width</div>
<div class="col">equal</div>
</div>
Auto-layout columns
Plain .col columns share the row equally. Setting one column's width, such as .col-6, makes the others share the remainder. Variable-width content uses .col-auto or breakpoint versions like .col-md-auto. Gutters can be changed with g-* classes.
Note:
g-0 removes gutters, g-4 makes them larger.
