@artur-sikora This dynamic resolution of dashboard columns does not work properly for different number of columns (I'm talking about up to 4 columns), e.g. the total sum of grid columns is too small for 1- and 2-column-based layouts (there's a total grid width of 23 columns instead of 24).

While I see your point in general I'm not sure if a dynamic solution like yours is the way to go because we had to do some math within the template (which is not possible without using another package) in order to properly calculate column widths for all sorts of different numbers of columns. Further I'm not sure if such an algorithmic outcome would be satisfying when you want to achieve certain layouts. It might be a better idea to define the desired width of each column within your dashboard.py — we're going to think about that.

Does not calculate correct grid layouts for different numbers of columns, e.g. 1- and 2-column-based layouts result in a total grid width of 23 columns (instead of 24).

Further, I'm not sure if such an algorithmic resolution is the best way to resolve column based layouts.
