Tailwind CSS Place Content

This class accepts a wide range of values. It's a replacement for the CSS Place Content property. This class is used to manage how information is justified while still being aligned. To change the values of several properties in a single class, the align-content and justify-content class values can be stored in the place-content class.

Place Content Classes

The classes are as follows:

  • place-content-center
  • place-content-start
  • place-content-end
  • place-content-between
  • place-content-around
  • place-content-evenly
  • place-content-stretch

place-content-center
