Just to be clear, we are not working on it. However it is something I would like to start looking into sometime soon :) This is a huge area for contributions as I myself am not a grid expert (as apposed to having worked on flexbox engines past 3 years).

I hear you, but this is very different to "we're never going to implement this". I might look into contributing, but I've never implemented any layout engine, so I'm not sure how much help I would be!

I would love to help talk through how to start and the process i used for the flexbox implementation :) start a PR / Issue and we can discuss :)

As someone else who knows nothing about how layout engines work, kudos to this response. I understand time and attention don’t scale well and I hope you don’t get overwhelmed but this kind of attitude in open source is the greatest.
