# New Safari developer tools provide insight into CSS Grid Lanes

**[WebKit](https://daily.dev/sources/webkit)** · 4 min read · 8 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

Safari Technology Preview 235 introduces Order Numbers in the Grid Inspector, a new developer tool feature that visualizes content flow order in CSS Grid Lanes. Grid Lanes is a new CSS capability that enables masonry-style layouts by aligning content in either columns or rows (not both), with content flowing perpendicular to the defined layout shape. The Order Numbers feature helps developers understand how items flow through the grid, similar to the existing Flexbox Inspector feature. Safari's layout inspectors support unlimited simultaneous overlays, customizable colors, and clear visual distinctions for debugging layout issues.
