    This information has been entered into a database. For my first version of my form I am only going three columns wide
    Users will be able to add main column title data(so yes main column title will continue to be add to the form)
    There are many detail column titles data for each main column title
    The number of detail column title can be different for each main column title
    When all of the detail column title for each main column title is completed a new
    line of main column titles starts and the process starts over again
    Users will be able to add detail column title data(so yes detail column title will continue to be add to the form)

    Languages Used (What I plan on using):
    HTML
    PHP
    MYSQL
    CSS

    Here is my layout:

    main column title main column title main column title

    detail column title detail column title detail column title
    detail column title detail column title detail column title
    detail column title detail column title detail column title
    detail column title detail column title
    detail column title

    main column title main column title main column title

    detail column title detail column title detail column title
    detail column title detail column title

    main column title main column title main column title

    detail column title detail column title detail column title
    detail column title

    If you are using WordPress I suggest you Elementor, SiteOrigin, or any other page builder, if you are limited by your time. If not try both of these, because you will not learn from tutorials, you will learn from real life examples. Because that is experience and it will be more than helpful. If you are building your page without any CMS, and you don’t have time, and your layout is not that difficult to understand than you should try flexbox.

    Use both, Flexbox wasn’t intended to compete with grid they both work together.

    Use Grid for the page layout and Flexbox to layout the elements inside components

    If you use grid you will really need to think about fallbacks for older browsers.
