The column-count Property
- Justified/Newspaper style
The column-count property creates the specified number of columns and distributes the contents of an element into them. It is very useful for text. It is different than the columns feature of many of the CSS grid layout frameworks becasue column-count columns are not discrete parts of a page, they are not individually addressable.
This example also uses the text-align property with the value of justify, which causes the left and right margins to have straight vertical edges. Text justification can result in unsightly gaps in lines when big words are in use:
