In the recent handful of years and absolutely the next ones to come the universe of internet spreading more and even more largely across every sort of devices in this way these days basically half of the views of the webpages online are carried out not really on desktop computer and laptop display screens however, directly from different mobile gadgets with every types of small display measurements. And so in the event that a web page will not show properly-- suggesting to resize and systematically get its own most ideal match on the gadget employed its possibly will get searched away to be replaced by a mobile friendly web page providing similar services or product.
What's more-- the indexing mechanisms just like Google do the so called mobile-friendly test and demonstrate far down your web pages throughout the search results. This pushing down is even deeper supposing that the search is carried out by a mobile phone-- the internet search engines consider this specific thing fairly seriously. In this way not having a mobile phone friendly web page pretty much implies not possessing a page anyway.
However what certainly a webpage being responsive means-- usually-- fitting all width of the display which becomes displayed on showcasing the features with convenient and clear way at any sizing. To deal with this the Bootstrap framework works with so called breakpoints and columns . In a several words the breakpoints are actually predefined display screen widths at which a alteration goes on and the Bootstrap Columns Group become reordered to simply suit much better. The earlier version applied 4 breakpoints and the absolute most new Bootstrap 4 framework presents one added so they get actually five. Here they are together with the max value they extend to. The exact boundary number in itself goes to the upcoming screen scale.
Extra small up to 34em ( or 544px) – up to Bootstrap 4 Alpha 5 had the -xs- infix. In Bootstrap 4 alpha 6 this infix is dropped so just the number follows;
Small – from 34em up to 48em ( or 768px ) – has the -sm- infix;
Medium – from 48em up to 62em ( or 992px ) – has the -md-  infix;
Large – from 62em up to 75em ( 1200px ) - -lg- infix;
Extra large – 75em and everything above it – the new size in Bootstrap 4 – has the -xl- infix.
The horizontal  area in Bootstrap 4 framework  becomes  divided  in 12  components  equivalent in  size-- these are the so called columns-- they all  possess the .col- prefix.   Later  goes the screen  dimension infix which  determined down to which  display  dimension the column element will span the  defined  amount of columns.   Supposing that the screen  scale is  smaller sized -- the column  component  utilizes the  full  display width-- as if it was  specified .col-12 (.col-xs-12 up to Bootstrap 4 alpha 5).
Make use of breakpoint-specific column classes for equal-width columns. Add in any variety of unit-less classes for each breakpoint you really need and each Bootstrap Columns jQuery will definitely be the equivalent width.
For instance,  listed here are two grid  designs that  put on every  gadget and viewport, from xs.

<div class="container">
  <div class="row">
    <div class="col">
      1 of 2
    </div>
    <div class="col">
      1 of 2
    </div>
  </div>
  <div class="row">
    <div class="col">
      1 of 3
    </div>
    <div class="col">
      1 of 3
    </div>
    <div class="col">
      1 of 3
    </div>
  </div>
</div>Auto-layout for flexbox grid columns as well means you can certainly set up the width of one column and the others are going to immediately resize around it. You can utilize predefined grid classes (as indicated below), grid mixins, as well as inline widths. Note that the various columns will resize no matter the width of the center column.

<div class="container">
  <div class="row">
    <div class="col">
      1 of 3
    </div>
    <div class="col-6">
      2 of 3 (wider)
    </div>
    <div class="col">
      3 of 3
    </div>
  </div>
  <div class="row">
    <div class="col">
      1 of 3
    </div>
    <div class="col-5">
      2 of 3 (wider)
    </div>
    <div class="col">
      3 of 3
    </div>
  </div>
</div>Using the col-  breakpoint  -auto classes, columns  have the ability to size  on its own  built upon the  normal  size of its content. This is  extremely  practical  having  one line  web content  just like inputs, numbers, etc.  This particular,  along with horizontal alignment classes, is  extremely useful for  focusing  configurations with  unequal column sizes as viewport width  evolves.

<div class="container">
  <div class="row justify-content-md-center">
    <div class="col col-lg-2">
      1 of 3
    </div>
    <div class="col-12 col-md-auto">
      Variable width content
    </div>
    <div class="col col-lg-2">
      3 of 3
    </div>
  </div>
  <div class="row">
    <div class="col">
      1 of 3
    </div>
    <div class="col-12 col-md-auto">
      Variable width content
    </div>
    <div class="col col-lg-2">
      3 of 3
    </div>
  </div>
</div>Create equal-width columns that  extend multiple rows  through  fitting a .w-100  exactly where you  want to have the columns to break to a new line. Make the  breaches responsive  simply by  combining the .w-100  along with some responsive  screen utilities.

<div class="row">
  <div class="col">col</div>
  <div class="col">col</div>
  <div class="w-100"></div>
  <div class="col">col</div>
  <div class="col">col</div>
</div>Another new thing  upon the  new Alpha 6 build of Bootstrap 4 is  on the occasion that you  provide  simply a  couple of .col-~ some number here ~ elements spanning less than 12 columns they will actually  promote proportionally to  get all the  field  obtainable on the row and  will definitely remain  in this way at any  display screen width--  and even under 32em.
And so currently you understand specifically how the column items set up the construction and responsive activity of the Bootstrap framework and everything that is actually left for you is setting up something truly awesome using them.
