    Only Important Code

    
    <div class="container-fluid">
      <h1>Hello World!</h1>

      <div class="row">
        <div class="col" style="background-color:lavender;">.col</div>
        <div class="col" style="background-color:orange;">.col</div>
        <div class="col" style="background-color:lavender;">.col</div>
