Columns should be used only to break apart content that is logically separate or to compare things. Columns should not be used simply as a layout prop. Use columns sparingly. On a mobile view, all columns will stack on top of each other, so they're only really useful on larger screens.
The Columns Snippet allows you to break up your content into vertical columns. Simply insert the column snippet onto the page, and each column in your table will become a column in the page.
Examples
2 Columns
Sometimes you may wish to separate your content into 2 columns.
Up
One of the most common directions. Also a fantastic Pixar film.
Down
The Y-axis relative vertical direction opposed to up. Also what you feel when you play the blues.
3 Columns
Occasionally you may need to separate your content into 3 columns. Note that on tablets, these stack 2 over 1.
Moe
