Utilities for controlling how an individual flex or grid item is positioned along its container's cross axis.
<div class="flex items-stretch ..."> <div>1</div> <div class="self-auto ...">2</div> <div>3</div> </div>Use self-start to align an item to the start of the container’s cross axis, despite the container’s align-items value:
<div class="flex items-stretch ..."> <div>1</div> <div class="self-start ...">2</div> <div>3</div> </div>Use self-center to align an item along the center of the container’s cross axis, despite the container’s align-items value:
<div class="flex items-stretch ..."> <div>1</div> <div class="self-center ...">2</div> <div>3</div> </div>Use self-end to align an item to the end of the container’s cross axis, despite the container’s align-items value:
<div class="flex items-stretch ..."> <div>1</div> <div class="self-end ...">2</div> <div>3</div> </div>Use self-stretch to stretch an item to fill the container’s cross axis, despite the container’s align-items value:
<div class="flex items-stretch ..."> <div>1</div> <div class="self-stretch ...">2</div> <div>3</div> </div>To control the alignment of a flex item at a specific breakpoint, add a {screen}: prefix to any existing utility class. For example, use md:self-end to apply the self-end utility at only medium screen sizes and above.
<div class="items-stretch ..."> <div class="self-auto md:self-end ..."> <!-- ... --> </div> </div>For more information about Tailwind’s responsive design features, check out the Responsive Design documentation.
By default, only responsive variants are generated for align-self utilities.
You can control which variants are generated for the align-self utilities by modifying the alignSelf 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: { // ... + alignSelf: ['hover', 'focus'], } } }If you don't plan to use the align-self utilities in your project, you can disable them entirely by setting the alignSelf property to false in the corePlugins section of your config file:
// tailwind.config.js module.exports = { corePlugins: { // ... + alignSelf: false, } }
