Basic example

Use utilities like break-after-column and break-after-page to control how a column or page break should behave after an element:

<div class="columns-2">  <p>Well, let me tell you something, ...</p>  <p class="break-after-column">Sure, go ahead, laugh...</p>  <p>Maybe we can live without...</p>  <p>Look. If you think this is...</p></div>

Responsive design

Prefix a break-after utility with a breakpoint variant like md: to only apply the utility at medium screen sizes and above:

<div class="break-after-column md:break-after-auto ...">  <!-- ... --></div>
