Horizontal & Vertical Container

Horizontal and vertical containers are page components used in the Nova application to organize and structure content on a page. 

  • A horizontal container, referred to as a "row" - is a layout element that arranges its child elements or components in a horizontal line, side by side.

  • A vertical container, referred to as a "column" - is a layout element that arranges its child elements or components in a vertical stack, one on top of the other.

This layout structure allows for a flexible and responsive design, adapting well to different screen sizes and orientations. It's a fundamental concept in creating well-organized and visually appealing user interfaces.
