Four Column Layout that Converts to Single Column without Media Query

问题

I'm trying to create a four column layout where each column grows and shrinks with the size of the window, but each column has a minimum width and when the window is too small for all four columns to fit in a single row, it transitions to a single column with each section taking up the full width.

I've been unable to do this with either flex-box or CSS grid. And I'd like to do this without a media query. Using a media query would solve the issue pretty easily, but I don't like them!

.col {
  width: 100%; 
  display: flex; 
  flex-wrap: wrap;
}

.section {
  margin: 10px 0px 0px 10px;
  min-width: 250px; 
  height: 400px; 
  background-color: gray;
  flex: auto; 
}

<div class="col">
  <div class="section">
  </div>
   <div class="section">
  </div>
   <div class="section">
  </div>
   <div class="section">
  </div>
</div>

Media queries are great, but they are not always a viable substitute for container queries (which sadly do not exist).

A horizontal to vertical layout switch can be achieved using CSS calc when you know how many columns you will have.

.child{
   min-width: 25%; /* 100% divide number columns */
   max-width: 100%;
   width: calc((50rem - 100%) * 1000); /* Replace 50rem with size of .parent when you want switch to happen */
}

The width is calculated as your desired breakpoint minus the width of the parent container. This either generates a negative number and the min-width is applied, or a large number in which case the max-width takes over.

If you are using flex-box then width can also be flex-basis.
