<div class="text-grey-darker text-center bg-grey-light px-4 py-2 m-2">3</div>
</div>
Space between
Use .justify-between
to justify items along the flex container's main axis such that there is an equal amount of space between each item:
<div class="flex justify-between bg-grey-lighter">
<div class="text-grey-darker text-center bg-grey-light px-4 py-2 m-2">1</div>
<div class="text-grey-darker text-center bg-grey-light px-4 py-2 m-2">2</div>
<div class="text-grey-darker text-center bg-grey-light px-4 py-2 m-2">3</div>
</div>
Space around
Use .justify-around
to justify items along the flex container's main axis such that there is an equal amount of space around each item:
<div class="flex justify-around bg-grey-lighter">
<div class="text-grey-darker text-center bg-grey-light px-4 py-2 m-2">1</div>

<div class="text-grey-darker text-center bg-grey-light px-4 py-2 m-2">3</div>
</div>
Responsive
To justify flex items at a specific breakpoint, add a {screen}:
prefix to any existing utility class. For example, use md:justify-between
to apply the justify-between
utility at only medium screen sizes and above.
For more information about Tailwind's responsive design features, check out the Responsive Design documentation.
Customizing
Responsive and State Variants
By default, only responsive variants are generated for justify-content utilities.
You can control which variants are generated for the justify-content utilities by modifying the flexbox
property in the modules
section of your Tailwind config file.
For example, this config will also generate hover and focus variants:
Note that modifying the flexbox
property will affect which variants are generated for all Flexbox utilities, not just the justify-content utilities.
Disabling
If you don't plan to use the justify-content utilities in your project, you can disable them entirely by setting the flexbox
property to false
in the modules
section of your config file:
Note that modifying the flexbox
property will affect which variants are generated for all Flexbox utilities, not just the justify-content utilities.
