### Gutters

Gutters can be responsively adjusted by breakpoint-specific padding and negative margin utility classes. To change the gutters in a given row, pair a negative margin utility on the `.row` and matching padding utilities on the `.col`s.

Here's an example of customizing the Bootstrap grid at the large (`lg`) breakpoint and above. We've increased the `.col` padding with `.px-lg-5` and then counteracted that with `.mx-lg-n5` on the parent `.row`.

{% capture example %}
<div class="row mx-lg-n5">
<div class="col py-3 px-lg-5 border bg-light">Custom column padding</div>
<div class="col py-3 px-lg-5 border bg-light">Custom column padding</div>
</div>
{% endcapture %}

### Negative margin

In CSS, `margin` properties can utilize negative values (`padding` cannot). As of 4.2, we've added negative margin utilities for every non-zero integer size listed above (e.g., `1`, `2`, `3`, `4`, `5`). These utilities are ideal for customizing grid column gutters across breakpoints.

The syntax is nearly the same as the default, positive margin utilities, but with the addition of `n` before the requested size. Here's an example class that's the opposite of `.mt-1`:

{% highlight scss %}
.mt-n1 {
margin-top: -0.25rem !important;
}
{% endhighlight %}

Here's an example of customizing the Bootstrap grid at the medium (`md`) breakpoint and above. We've increased the `.col` padding with `.px-md-5` and then counteracted that with `.mx-md-n5` on the parent `.row`.

{% capture example %}
<div class="row mx-md-n5">
<div class="col py-3 px-md-5 border bg-light">Custom column padding</div>
<div class="col py-3 px-md-5 border bg-light">Custom column padding</div>
