#### Explanation
- This snippet creates a Masonry style layout using pure HTML and CSS. Not only is this lightweight, it prevents render blocking as the browser will directly place all contents at the right places.
- A Masonry layout consists of "bricks" that fall into each other, with either a fixed width (vertical layout) or a fixed height (horizontal layout), forming a perfect fit. It looks the best when working with images.
- Masonry is not the same as a CSS grid or Flexbox &mdash; they usually have both fixed width and height, a Masonry-layout has one variable dimension (width or height), and forms a perfect fit.
- `.masonry-container` is the container for the Masonry layout. Within that container, there's a div `.masonry-columns`, which will automatically put each child element `.masonry-brick` into a Masonry layout. There's some CSS that ensures that `.masonry-brick` is a block-level element and that the first one will have no margin on top.
- You can change the CSS3 variables to fine-tune it.
- Older browsers might need vendor prefixes.

- Create a masonry-style layout that consists of "bricks" that fall into each other with either a fidex `width` (vertical layout) or a fixed `height` (horizontal layout), forming a perfect fit. Especially useful when working with images.
- `.masonry-container` is the container for the masonry layout. Within that container, there's a `div.masonry-columns`, which will automatically put each child element, `.masonry-brick`, into the layout.
- `.masonry-brick` must be have `display: block` to allow the layout to flow properly, while the `:first-child` of this class should have a different `margin` to account for its positioning.
- CSS variables are used to allow for greater flexibility for the layout, while media queries ensure that the layout flows responsively in different viewport sizes.
