Grid with pure CSS or JS #104

We talked about what we wanted to do for the grid we'll be using for displaying widgets in the UI.

We'll need to chose if we either do a pure CSS thing or if we try and build something more refined like https://github.com/uberVU/grid

@bbss Thoughts?

I would like to try to build something like that. Very much so even!

I've used gridster in the past and dug into its source code, seemed too complex for what it achieves and the line on that uberVU grid page says they came up with 5x less code doesn't surprise me at all. I like that they have their features covered in jasmine tests and because of that I can learn a lot quickly (tests rock!).

Even though we want to focus on simplicity for dashy, I think being able to easily re-arrange your widgets is a must, so for me this is a big yes on an interactive solution.
