Grid List

Grid lists display a collection of images in an organized grid.

Grid lists represent a collection of items in a repeated pattern. They help improve the visual comprehension of the content they hold.

Image-only Grid list

A simple example of a scrollable image GridList.

  • Breakfast
  • Tasty burger
  • Camera
  • Morning
  • Hats
  • Honey
  • Vegetables
  • Water plant
  • Mushrooms
  • Olive oil
  • Sea star
  • Bike
<GridList cellHeight={160} className={classes.gridList} cols={3}>
  {tileData.map((tile) => (
    <GridListTile key={tile.img} cols={tile.cols || 1}>
      <img src={tile.img} alt={tile.title} />
    </GridListTile>
  ))}
</GridList>

Grid list with titlebars

This example demonstrates the use of the GridListTileBar to add an overlay to each GridListTile. The overlay can accommodate a title, subtitle and secondary action - in this example an IconButton.

Single line Grid list

This example demonstrates a horizontal scrollable single-line grid list of images. Horizontally scrolling grid lists are discouraged because the scrolling interferes with typical reading patterns, affecting comprehension. One notable exception is a horizontally-scrolling, single-line grid list of images, such as a gallery.

Advanced Grid list

This example demonstrates "featured" tiles, using the rows and cols props to adjust the size of the tile, and the padding prop to adjust the spacing. The tiles have a customized titlebar, positioned at the top and with a custom gradient titleBackground. The secondary action IconButton is positioned on the left.
