Justify Content

​Basic usage

​Start

Use justify-start to justify items against the start of the container’s main axis:

<div class="flex justify-start ...">
  <div>01</div>
  <div>02</div>
  <div>03</div>
</div>

​Center

Use justify-center to justify items along the center of the container’s main axis:

<div class="flex justify-center ...">
  <div>01</div>
  <div>02</div>
  <div>03</div>
</div>

​End

Use justify-end to justify items against the end of the container’s main axis:

<div class="flex justify-end ...">
  <div>01</div>
  <div>02</div>
  <div>03</div>
</div>

​Space between

Use justify-between to justify items along the container’s main axis such that there is an equal amount of space between each item:

<div class="flex justify-between ...">
  <div>01</div>
  <div>02</div>
  <div>03</div>
</div>

​Space around

Use justify-around to justify items along the container’s main axis such that there is an equal amount of space on each side of each item:

<div class="flex justify-around ...">
  <div>01</div>
  <div>02</div>
  <div>03</div>
</div>

​Space evenly

Use justify-evenly to justify items along the container’s main axis such that there is an equal amount of space around each item, but also accounting for the doubling of space you would normally see between each item when using justify-around:

<div class="flex justify-evenly ...">
  <div>01</div>
  <div>02</div>
  <div>03</div>
</div>

​Stretch

Use justify-stretch to allow content items to fill the available space along the container’s main axis:

<div class="grid grid-flow-col justify-stretch ...">
  <div>01</div>
  <div>02</div>
  <div>03</div>
</div>

​Normal

Use justify-normal to pack content items in their default position as if no justify-content value was set:

<div class="flex justify-normal ...">
  <div>01</div>
  <div>02</div>
  <div>03</div>
</div>

​Applying conditionally

​Hover, focus, and other states

Tailwind lets you conditionally apply utility classes in different states using variant modifiers. For example, use hover:justify-between to only apply the justify-between utility on hover.

<div class="flex justify-start hover:justify-between">
  <!-- ... -->
</div>

For a complete list of all available state modifiers, check out the Hover, Focus, & Other States documentation.

​Breakpoints and media queries

You can also use variant modifiers to target media queries like responsive breakpoints, dark mode, prefers-reduced-motion, and more. For example, use md:justify-between to apply the justify-between utility at only medium screen sizes and above.

<div class="flex justify-start md:justify-between">
  <!-- ... -->
</div>
