Use the self-auto
utility to align an item based on the value of the container's align-items
property:
<div class="flex items-stretch ..."> <div>01</div> <div class="self-auto ...">02</div> <div>03</div></div>
Use the self-start
utility to align an item to the start of the container's cross axis, despite the container's align-items
value:
<div class="flex items-stretch ..."> <div>01</div> <div class="self-start ...">02</div> <div>03</div></div>
Use the self-center
utility to align an item along the center of the container's cross axis, despite the container's align-items
value:
<div class="flex items-stretch ..."> <div>01</div> <div class="self-center ...">02</div> <div>03</div></div>
Use the self-end
utility to align an item to the end of the container's cross axis, despite the container's align-items
value:
<div class="flex items-stretch ..."> <div>01</div> <div class="self-end ...">02</div> <div>03</div></div>
Use the self-stretch
utility to stretch an item to fill the container's cross axis, despite the container's align-items
value:
<div class="flex items-stretch ..."> <div>01</div> <div class="self-stretch ...">02</div> <div>03</div></div>
Use the self-baseline
utility to align an item such that its baseline aligns with the baseline of the flex container's cross axis:
<div class="flex ..."> <div class="self-baseline pt-2 pb-6">01</div> <div class="self-baseline pt-8 pb-12">02</div> <div class="self-baseline pt-12 pb-4">03</div></div>
Use the self-baseline-last
utility to align an item along the container's cross axis such that its baseline aligns with the last baseline in the container:
<div class="grid grid-cols-[1fr_auto]"> <div> <img src="img/spencer-sharp.jpg" /> <h4>Spencer Sharp</h4> <p class="self-baseline-last">Working on the future of astronaut recruitment at Space Recruit.</p> </div> <p class="self-baseline-last">spacerecruit.com</p></div>
This is useful for ensuring that text items align with each other, even if they have different heights.
Prefix an align-self
utility with a breakpoint variant like md:
to only apply the utility at medium screen sizes and above:
<div class="self-auto md:self-end ..."> <!-- ... --></div>
