Reducing Gap in CSS Grid UL/LI - html

Question

I am having some issues reducing the space on my footer using CSS grid. I've gotten to the point where my list items are on one line but I cannot find a way to reduce the gap in between. This may be because of my centering of it but I cannot figure it out after googling/playing.

</div>
My example is above and any help would be amazing! My outcome would be to be able to reduce the gap beween the 4 TESTS in the bottom right to make it look a bit cleaner.
Thank you,

Answer 1

You can try this:
.footer-right
{
grid-column: 3;
align-self: center;
list-style-type: none;
display: grid;
grid-template-columns: repeat(4, 50px);
grid-row-gap: 50px;
}
I changed grid template columns to this grid-template-columns: repeat(4, 50px); to give to the columns 50px width. But, if this does not suite you, you can always use some other width in % or in some other measure.

Answer 2

One option...don't use CSS-Grid at all on the footer. Flexbox would be simpler.
html,
body {
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
margin: 0;
}
body {
font-family: 'Oswald', sans-serif;
color: #FEDCD2;
}
.footer {
/* not required for demo
position: fixed;
left: 0;
bottom: 0;
width: 100%;
*/
background-color: #DF744A;
color: white;
text-align: center;
}
footer {
display: flex;
}
.footer-left {
grid-column: 1;
align-self: center;
}
.footer-right {
margin-left: auto;
list-style-type: none;
display: flex;
}
.footer-right li {
text-decoration: none;
margin: .25em;
/* manages spacing */
}
.footer-right li a {
color: white;
}
.footer-right li a:hover {
opacity: .7;
color: blue;
}
.underlineremove {
text-decoration: none;
text-decoration-style: none;
}
<div class="footer">
<footer>
<p class="footer-left"> © FarHill Deisgns </p>
<ul class="footer-right">
<li>TEST</li>
<li>TEST</li>
<li>TEST</li>
<li>TEST</li>
</ul>
</footer>
</div>
Alternatively, if you must use CSS-Grid, then consider a two column grid and flex the ul...
footer {
display: grid;
grid-template-columns:1fr auto;
}
html,
body {
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
margin: 0;
}
body {
font-family: 'Oswald', sans-serif;
color: #FEDCD2;
}
.footer {
/* not required for demo
position: fixed;
left: 0;
bottom: 0;
width: 100%;
*/
background-color: #DF744A;
color: white;
text-align: center;
}
footer {
display: grid;
grid-template-columns: 1fr auto;
}
.footer-left {
grid-column: 1;
align-self: center;
}
.footer-right {
margin-left: auto;
list-style-type: none;
display: flex;
}
.footer-right li {
text-decoration: none;
margin: .25em;
}
.footer-right li a {
color: white;
}
.footer-right li a:hover {
opacity: .7;
color: blue;
}
.underlineremove {
text-decoration: none;
text-decoration-style: none;
}
<div class="footer">
<footer>
<p class="footer-left"> © FarHill Deisgns </p>
<ul class="footer-right">
<li>TEST</li>
<li>TEST</li>
<li>TEST</li>
<li>TEST</li>
</ul>
</footer>
</div>
