-Float an element to the left or right with a class. `!important` is included to avoid specificity issues. Classes can also be used as mixins.
+These utility classes float an element to the left or right, or disable floating, based on the current viewport size using the [CSS `float` property](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/float). `!important` is included to avoid specificity issues. These use the same viewport width breakpoints as the grid system.
