 Before React Native v0.42 we didn't have a performant, declarative way of specifying percentage-based dimensions. Then came React Native v0.42 which gave us that ability. Since then several open source contributors have made responsive grids that take advantage of this new capability. This "grid" takes one of the simplest and most well-thought-out ones, namely, `react-native-flexbox-grid` (by @rundmt), and modifies it heavily to produce a simple yet powerful layout model that we can use to implement responsive and adaptive behavior in our apps.

-This grid eschews Flexbox-based sizing in favor of percentage-based sizing while at the same time relying on Flexbox for alignment. It delivers the predictability of the percentage-based model with the more sophisticated alignment capasbility of the Flexbox model.
+This grid eschews Flexbox-based constraint-based grow/shirnk sizing in favor of percentage-based sizing while at the same time relying other aspects of Flexbox's 1-dimensional constraint-based layout. The grid aims to deliver the predictability of the percentage-based model with the more sophisticated alignment capability of the Flexbox model.
 
-_The grid construct is extended beyond its archetypal form as a Rectilinear 2D Grid and generalized as two cross-nestable, orthogonal components, namely, Row and Column, that can be combined in an alternating pattern to build a tree of Views of any shape and depth. That is to say, a Row View (Row for short) may contain one or more Column Views (Column for short), each of which may contain one or more Rows, which in turn may contain one or more Columns, and so on. Both Rows and Columns can be styled using predictable, percentage-based width, height, padding and margins. Rows can be aligned vertically (along main axis) and horizontally (along cross axis) inside Columns, and Columns can be aligned horizontally (along main axis) and vertically (along cross axis) inside Rows. [Additionally, the multiple lines created by wrapped Row content may be aligned vertically relative to the parent Column.] And with this, we can build the entire UI component tree (or an individual component's subtree) using a consistent, repeatable and recursive pattern, one that has predictable and dynamic --not only static-- responsiveness and the ability to trigger specific adaptive behavior built into it._

 _The tree nodes are represented by Rows and their children are represented by Columns. Tree leaves are Columns that have no Row as a child._
 
 ### A grid or a tree?
 
-With this grid, we don't lose any aspect of the normal rectilinear 2D grid. We just gain a generalized and consistent way of building responsive UI component trees. A normal rectilinear 2D grid is a tree where the rows are the children and the columns within each are the grand children. But a UI is constructed as a tree of arbitrary shape which corresponds to the UI's visual composition, so a normal rectilinear 2D grid is the simplest tree structure but for a layout farmework, which is what the responsive grid is, we want the ability to build UI View trees of any shape and complexity with predictable responsive behavior. That is what this grid gives us. It's a granular, responsive layout system, not just a design/formatting tool. We could certainly constructa high level rectilinear 2D grid with it, but that is just a specific use case.

-## React Native Examples
+## Examples
 
 You may use this grid to build responsive 2D layouts that maintain their relative proportions, change their basic structure in a predictable way and dynamically decide what content to display, based on screen size, aspect ratio, and orientation.
