# Grid Views

Appstent supports arranging multiple content views in one for rows and columns to form a grid of items.  Grid view is represented by `grid` value for the field `type`.  The `numColumns` field can be used to control the number of columns the grid should have.  For example, following example shows how to create a grid of 2 columns.

```json
{
    "type": "grid",
    "numColumns": 2,
    "views": [
        {
            "type": "image",
            "source": "https://images.generated.photos/H5P0g36_4BNURBcXAfIOsIjFcXMKEEXbMrM2VtrT1uA/rs:fit:256:256/czM6Ly9pY29uczgu/Z3Bob3Rvcy1wcm9k/LnBob3Rvcy8wMDU5/MDA2LmpwZw.jpg",
            "sourceType": "remote"
        },
        {
            "type": "image",
            "source": "https://images.generated.photos/Xhyvj8QQyX7amxJD0JcnUAWvmSMvYsgSVclX17HOf8M/rs:fit:256:256/czM6Ly9pY29uczgu/Z3Bob3Rvcy1wcm9k/LnBob3Rvcy8wNDg5/MDkwLmpwZw.jpg",
            "sourceType": "remote"
        },
        {
            "type": "image",
            "source": "https://images.generated.photos/q8KxvpoyxKcCj-aJ3Ld_kNVcHDqng2OpQx-1PDpcbKU/rs:fit:256:256/czM6Ly9pY29uczgu/Z3Bob3Rvcy1wcm9k/LnBob3Rvcy8wNDg5/MTQ2LmpwZw.jpg",
