Answer

To create a responsive grid layout with Tailwind CSS, you can use its grid utilities to define columns and responsive classes to adjust the layout for different screen sizes.

<!-- BEGIN COPY / PASTE -->
    <div class="grid grid-cols-1 sm:grid-cols-2 md:grid-cols-3 gap-4">
      <div class="bg-blue-500 p-4">Item 1</div>
      <div class="bg-blue-500 p-4">Item 2</div>
      <div class="bg-blue-500 p-4">Item 3</div>
      <div class="bg-blue-500 p-4">Item 4</div>
      <div class="bg-blue-500 p-4">Item 5</div>
      <div class="bg-blue-500 p-4">Item 6</div>
    </div>
    <!-- END COPY / PASTE -->

Additional Comment:

The "grid" class initializes a CSS Grid layout.
"grid-cols-1" sets the default to one column, which is ideal for small screens.
"sm:grid-cols-2" and "md:grid-cols-3" adjust the number of columns for larger screens.
"gap-4" adds spacing between grid items.
Responsive classes like "sm:" and "md:" apply styles at specific breakpoints.
