Hello Everybody, I'm New
Does anyone know how to make a horizontal grid similar to the style of amazon?

I'm not sure what you're referring to. I can't find anything that looks like a horizontal grid on Amazon. Can you give us a link to an example of this?

What you're seeing in Amazon isn't a grid, it's just a bunch of HTML images/text put into a div (we call a "simple layout") and allowing it to be scrollable in the x coordinate.

Personally, If I wanted to do this, I'd start by looking for the HTML code to make something like a carosel. In the Visual Designer, I'd place an HTML container widget, and I'd code the internal HTML myself, to make it look the way I wanted to. I'd use the built-in ejs support so that the RPG program can write the data as a grid (if that works better for you) and use ejs to populate the HTML with the data from the grid.

This is definitely a bit more advanced than simply drag/drop a widget, but it'd work very nicely.
