I am not skilled in css, but I simply want to eliminate the interior edges of the box and retain only the outer edges.
.grid-container {
display: grid;
grid-template-columns: auto auto auto;
background-color: #2196F3;
padding: 10px;
}
.grid-item {
background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.8);
border: 1px solid rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.8);
padding: 20px;
font-size: 30px;
text-align: center;
}
<h1>Grid Elements</h1>
<p>A Grid Layout must have a parent element with the <em>display</em> property set to <em>grid</em> or <em>inline-grid</em>.</p>
<p>Direct child element(s) of the grid container automatically becomes grid items.</p>
<div class="grid-container">
<div class="grid-item">1</div>
<div class="grid-item">2</div>
<div class="grid-item">3</div>
<div class="grid-item">4</div>
<div class="grid-item">5</div>
<div class="grid-item">6</div>
<div class="grid-item">7</div>
<div class="grid-item">8</div>
<div class="grid-item">9</div>
</div>
