Body part of the Html file contains a main div tag container, and this is divided in other main sections and each of these sections is further divided into smaller parts:

  1. CONTAINER

    Main building blocks of Container looks like in the photo


  2. Header

    Header is based in boostrap framework with logo, advertisement, navigation menu, search bar, and topline with weather, time, log-in and social icons.




  3. CONTENT Sections
    • Different section
    • we have included different sections, such as ticker new, heading section, block-wrapper etc.

      Most important section is block wrapper with with news posts block and sidebar, let's see it structure below:



  4. Footer

    Different widgets, last line with copyright line and navigation menu





Grid:

Based on Bootstrap, a sleek, intuitive, and powerful front-end framework.

Bootstrap makes use of certain HTML elements and CSS properties that require the use of the HTML5 doctype. Include it at the beginning of all your projects.

The default Bootstrap grid system utilizes 12 columns, the grid adapts to be 724px and 1170px wide depending on your viewport. Below 767px viewports, the columns stack Hotmagazinely.

For a simple two column layout, create a .row and add the appropriate number of .col-md-* columns. As this is a 12-column grid, each .col-md-* spans a number of those 12 columns, and should always add up to 12 for each row (or the number of columns in the parent).




Given this example, we have two div tags with class .col-md-6, making for 12 total columns and a complete row.

Move columns to the right using .col-md-offset-* classes. Each class increases the left margin of a column by a whole column. For example, .col-md-offset-4 moves .col-md-4 over four columns.
