Utilities for controlling how an individual item is justified and aligned at the same time.
Use place-self-auto
to align an item based on the value of the container's place-items
property:
<div class="grid grid-cols-3 gap-2 ...">
<div>1</div>
<div class="place-self-auto ...">2</div>
<div>3</div>
<div>4</div>
<div>5</div>
<div>6</div>
</div>
<div class="grid grid-cols-3 gap-2 ...">
<div>1</div>
<div class="place-self-start ...">2</div>
<div>3</div>
<div>4</div>
<div>5</div>
<div>6</div>
</div>
<div class="grid grid-cols-3 gap-2 ...">
<div>1</div>
<div class="place-self-center ...">2</div>
<div>3</div>
<div>4</div>
<div>5</div>
<div>6</div>
</div>
<div class="grid grid-cols-3 gap-2 ...">
<div>1</div>
<div class="place-self-end ...">2</div>
<div>3</div>
<div>4</div>
<div>5</div>
<div>6</div>
</div>
<div class="grid grid-cols-3 gap-2 ...">
<div>1</div>
<div class="place-self-stretch ...">2</div>
<div>3</div>
<div>4</div>
<div>5</div>
<div>6</div>
</div>
To place an item at a specific breakpoint, add a {screen}:
prefix to any existing place-self
utility. For example, use md:place-self-end
to apply the place-self-end
utility at only medium screen sizes and above.
<div class="place-self-start md:place-self-end">
<!-- ... -->
</div>
For more information about Tailwind's responsive design features, check out the Responsive Design documentation.
By default, only responsive variants are generated for place-self utilities.
You can control which variants are generated for the place-self utilities by modifying the placeSelf
property in the variants
section of your tailwind.config.js
file.
For example, this config will also generate hover and focus variants:
// tailwind.config.js
module.exports = {
variants: {
extend: {
// ...
+ placeSelf: ['hover', 'focus'],
}
}
}
If you don't plan to use the place-self utilities in your project, you can disable them entirely by setting the placeSelf
property to false
in the corePlugins
section of your config file:
// tailwind.config.js
module.exports = {
corePlugins: {
// ...
+ placeSelf: false,
}
}
