A guide to wrapper vs. container classes in CSS

SMRTR summary

CSS .wrapper and .container classes have distinct roles in web layout. Containers define overall boundaries, setting max-width and centering content. They act as outer shells for major sections. Wrappers organize elements within containers, often using Flexbox or Grid. They group related content and manage internal spacing. Containers control width and centering, while wrappers structure content within those boundaries. Using both creates responsive layouts with clear organization.
