Tip: paint the same area name across adjacent cells to make it span multiple tracks. Empty cells become "." in the output.

About this tool

IconVault's Grid Area Painter lets you design CSS grid layouts by painting. Set your columns and rows, type an area name like `header` or `sidebar`, then click and drag across cells to assign them. Paint the same name over adjacent cells to make areas span multiple tracks. Completely free and runs fully in your browser.

The tool generates clean grid-template-areas CSS plus a class per area with its grid-area assignment, ready to copy or download as a .css file. Empty cells become `.` automatically, and an eraser plus clear-all keep iterating fast.
