How can I show three columns per row?

Solution 1:

This may be what you are looking for:

http://jsfiddle.net/L4L67/

body>div {
  background: #aaa;
  display: flex;
  flex-wrap: wrap;
}

body>div>div {
  flex-grow: 1;
  width: 33%;
  height: 100px;
}

body>div>div:nth-child(even) {
  background: #23a;
}

body>div>div:nth-child(odd) {
  background: #49b;
}
<div>
  <div></div>
  <div></div>
  <div></div>
  <div></div>
  <div></div>
  <div></div>
</div>

Solution 2:

Even though the above answer appears to be correct, I wanted to add a (hopefully) more readable example that also stays in 3 columns form at different widths:

.flex-row-container {
    background: #aaa;
    display: flex;
    flex-wrap: wrap;
    align-items: center;
    justify-content: center;
}
.flex-row-container > .flex-row-item {
    flex: 1 1 30%; /*grow | shrink | basis */
    height: 100px;
}

.flex-row-item {
  background-color: #fff4e6;
  border: 1px solid #f76707;
}
<div class="flex-row-container">
  <div class="flex-row-item">1</div>
  <div class="flex-row-item">2</div>
  <div class="flex-row-item">3</div>
  <div class="flex-row-item">4</div>
  <div class="flex-row-item">5</div>
  <div class="flex-row-item">6</div>
</div>

Hope this helps someone else.

Try this one using Grid Layout:

.grid-container {
  display: grid;
  grid-template-columns: auto auto auto;
  padding: 10px;
}
.grid-item {
  background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.8);
  border: 1px solid rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.8);
  padding: 20px;
  font-size: 30px;
  text-align: center;
}
<div class="grid-container">
  <div class="grid-item">1</div>
  <div class="grid-item">2</div>
  <div class="grid-item">3</div>  
  <div class="grid-item">4</div>
  <div class="grid-item">5</div>
  <div class="grid-item">6</div>  
  <div class="grid-item">7</div>
  <div class="grid-item">8</div>
  <div class="grid-item">9</div>  
</div>
