\maketitle
\begin{abstract}
Grid system is a package that implements grid-like layouts for \LaTeX, as it is commonly known from CSS. You can easily divide your horizontal space into equal parts and assign these to boxes containing your content.
\end{abstract}
\section{Usage}
\subsection{Overview}
%There are two methods to divide your row into multiple columns. The first one with uppercase \emph{Cell} and \emph{Row} is easier to use as it collects the content of the cells and calculates everything for you. As a result, it might break on certain contents (e.g. footnotes). For such cases, the second method with lowercase \emph{row} and \emph{cell} will work. These are more capable, but need more configuration.
\medskip
\subsection{Default use:}
\minisec{Example:}
\begin{minted}{latex}
\begin{Row}%
\begin{Cell}{2}
This is a long row spanning two thirds of the text width.
\end{Cell}
\begin{Cell}{1}
This is a long row spanning one third of the text width.
\end{Cell}
\end{Row}
\end{minted}
\minisec{Output:}
\begin{Row}%
\begin{Cell}{2}
This is a long row spanning two thirds of the text width. This one cannot have footnotes.
\end{Cell}
\begin{Cell}{1}
This is a long row spanning one third of the text width.
\end{Cell}
\end{Row}
\clearpage
\subsection{The (old) fallback}
In earlier implementations, the default interface from above would not work for many content. As this has changed, this fallback will become deprecated in the next version unless someone finds an important case to keep it.
\begin{lstlisting}
\begin{row}{<Total number of columns}{<Number of cells>}%
\begin{cell}{<Number of columns to span>}
...
\end{cell}
\begin{cell}{<Number of columns to span>}
...
\end{cell}
\end{row}
\end{lstlisting}
\minisec{Example:}
\begin{lstlisting}
\begin{row}{3}{2}%
\begin{cell}{2}
...
\end{cell}
\begin{cell}{1}
...
\end{cell}
\end{row}
\end{lstlisting}
\minisec{Output:}
\begin{row}{3}{2}%
\begin{cell}{2}
This is a long row spanning two thirds of the text width\footnote{Yes, really!}, telling your nothing\footnote{But it has footnotes, yeah!}.
\end{cell}
\begin{cell}{1}
This is a long row spanning one third of the text width.
\end{cell}
\end{row}
\bigskip
Each cell is created using a \texttt{minipage} environment. In future versions the will be a switch to choose either minipages or parboxes.
\section{Parameters}
There is one optional parameter for the environment \texttt{row} right now:
\medskip
\begin{tabularx}{\linewidth}{llX}\toprule
\textbf{Parameter} & \textbf{Default} & \textbf{Description},\\ \midrule
cellsep & 1.75em & horizonal space between two cells.\\\bottomrule
\end{tabularx}

\section{Example}
\begin{row}[cellsep=0.75cm]{3}{3}
\begin{cell}{1}
\section*{Overview}
\vspace{-1.5ex}
This shows what you can do with the \texttt{grid-system} package and three columns.
\end{cell}
\begin{cell}{1}
\section*{Why use it?}
\vspace{-1.5ex}
Sometimes you need to split your text in several independent columns based on equal division of the available space. This package allows you to easily do so.
