Bootstrap 5 Flex Align Self
Last Updated :
15 Dec, 2022
Bootstrap5 Flex Align Self property is used to change each item’s alignment individually on the cross-axis. By default, it starts from the y-axis, if we want to change the alignment on the x-axis change the value of the class flex-direction to the column. There are some classes that can be used to set the alignment.
Flex Align Self class:
- align-self-*-**: This class is specifically used on the flexbox items, in order to change their alignment on the cross-axis individually, by specifying the various available options with the align-self class.
Syntax:
<div class="align-self-*-**">
...
</div>
The ** can be replaced by start/end/baseline/stretch where,
- start: It denotes the item is placed on the cross start line.
- end: It denotes item is placed on the cross-end line.
- center: It denotes item is placed on the center of cross-axis.
- baseline: It denotes that items are aligned as their baselines are aligned.
- stretch: It denotes that the item will be stretched to fill the container with respect to max-height & max-width.
The ‘*‘ can be replaced by sm/md/lg/xl/xxl for making the content responsive to different screen sizes and the ‘**‘ can be replaced with the above-mentioned Flex Align Self classes.
Example 1: In this example, the flex-direction is set to row. Hence, the main axis is the X axis and the cross axis is the Y axis. As a result, the flex items will be aligned with respect to the cross-axis when an align-self property is set.
