Examples
Start
Use content-start
to pack rows in a container against the start of the cross axis:
<!-- [!code classes:content-start] -->
<div class="grid h-56 grid-cols-3 content-start gap-4 ...">
<div>01</div>
<div>02</div>
<div>03</div>
<div>04</div>
<div>05</div>
</div>
Center
Use content-center
to pack rows in a container in the center of the cross axis:
<!-- [!code classes:content-center] -->
<div class="grid h-56 grid-cols-3 content-center gap-4 ...">
<div>01</div>
<div>02</div>
<div>03</div>
<div>04</div>
<div>05</div>
</div>
End
Use content-end
to pack rows in a container against the end of the cross axis:
<!-- [!code classes:content-end] -->
<div class="grid h-56 grid-cols-3 content-end gap-4 ...">
<div>01</div>
<div>02</div>
<div>03</div>
<div>04</div>
<div>05</div>
</div>
Space between
Use content-between
to distribute rows in a container such that there is an equal amount of space between each line:
<!-- [!code classes:content-between] -->
<div class="grid h-56 grid-cols-3 content-between gap-4 ...">
<div>01</div>
<div>02</div>
<div>03</div>
<div>04</div>
<div>05</div>
</div>
Space around
Use content-around
to distribute rows in a container such that there is an equal amount of space around each line:
<!-- [!code classes:content-around] -->
<div class="grid h-56 grid-cols-3 content-around gap-4 ...">
<div>01</div>
<div>02</div>
<div>03</div>
<div>04</div>
<div>05</div>
</div>
Space evenly
Use content-evenly
to distribute rows in a container 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 content-around
:
<!-- [!code classes:content-evenly] -->
<div class="grid h-56 grid-cols-3 content-evenly gap-4 ...">
<div>01</div>
<div>02</div>
<div>03</div>
<div>04</div>
<div>05</div>
</div>
Stretch
Use content-stretch
to allow content items to fill the available space along the container's cross axis:
<!-- [!code classes:content-stretch] -->
<div class="grid h-56 grid-cols-3 content-stretch gap-4 ...">
<div>01</div>
<div>02</div>
<div>03</div>
<div>04</div>
<div>05</div>
</div>
Normal
Use content-normal
to pack content items in their default position as if no align-content
value was set:
<!-- [!code classes:content-normal] -->
<div class="grid h-56 grid-cols-3 content-normal gap-4 ...">
<div>01</div>
<div>02</div>
<div>03</div>
<div>04</div>
<div>05</div>
</div>
Responsive design
Prefix an align-content
utility with a breakpoint variant like md:
to only apply the utility at medium screen sizes and above:
<div class="grid content-start md:content-around ...">
<!-- ... -->
</div>
