> I am not sure why grid is one of the most useful, yet underutilized set of features in CSS

First time I tried to use grid layout, we had to roll back the changes because it didn't work in IE11... now that IE11 support is being phased out in most places it might be more usable now?

I do agree that the grid stuff is a little too robust. I'm also finding myself looking it all up again every time I need to use it... but maybe I just don't have the muscle memory down yet like I do with flexbox.

Between last year and this year, our IE11 visitors shrank from a few percent (I think it was 5% during the week, under 1 on the weekend…) to under 1, and I got permission to kick IE11 support. Already implemented the first grid and can’t wait to use CSS variables. It’s like I suddenly landed in the future :)

IE11 supports CSS Grid... but an older version. I have to support IE11, and I uses CSS Grid. Not works out of the box on every case, and I need sometimes to write IE11 only media blocks to fix some details. CSS autoprefixer helps here a lot.
