Bootstrap additional gutter between columns.
Rows are wrappers for columns each column has horizontal padding called a gutter for controlling the space between them.

Setting the fluid prop to a breakpoint name translates to the bootstrap class container breakpoint.

Recently i had a need to have a default grid in bootstrap but also on the homepage i needed to have 4 boxes that butted right up against each other.
That padding is offset in rows for the first and last column via negative margin on rows.

Bootstrap s grid system is responsive and the columns will re arrange depending on the screen size.
All breakpoints extra small small medium large and extra large.
To make the grid responsive there are five grid breakpoints one for each responsive breakpoint.
