Examples¶
Auto¶
Use the self-auto utility to align an item based on the value of the container's align-items property:
<!-- [!code classes:self-auto] -->
<div class="flex items-stretch ...">
<div>01</div>
<div class="self-auto ...">02</div>
<div>03</div>
</div>
Start¶
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:
<!-- [!code classes:self-start] -->
<div class="flex items-stretch ...">
<div>01</div>
<div class="self-start ...">02</div>
<div>03</div>
</div>
Center¶
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:
<!-- [!code classes:self-center] -->
<div class="flex items-stretch ...">
<div>01</div>
<div class="self-center ...">02</div>
<div>03</div>
</div>
End¶
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:
<!-- [!code classes:self-end] -->
<div class="flex items-stretch ...">
<div>01</div>
<div class="self-end ...">02</div>
<div>03</div>
</div>
Stretch¶
Use the self-stretch utility to stretch an item to fill the container's cross axis, despite the container's align-items value:
<!-- [!code classes:self-stretch] -->
<div class="flex items-stretch ...">
<div>01</div>
<div class="self-stretch ...">02</div>
<div>03</div>
</div>
Baseline¶
Use the self-baseline utility to align an item such that its baseline aligns with the baseline of the flex container's cross axis:
<!-- [!code classes:self-baseline] -->
<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>
Last baseline¶
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:
<!-- [!code classes:self-baseline-last] -->
<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.
