Justify Self

Utilities for controlling how an individual grid item is aligned along its inline axis.

Quick reference

Basic usage

Auto

Use justify-self-auto to align an item based on the value of the grid’s justify-items property:

<div class="grid justify-items-stretch ...">
  <!-- ... -->
  <div class="justify-self-auto ...">02</div>
  <!-- ... -->
  <!-- ... -->
  <!-- ... -->
  <!-- ... -->
</div>

Start

Use justify-self-start to align a grid item to the start its inline axis:

<div class="grid justify-items-stretch ...">
  <!-- ... -->
  <div class="justify-self-start ...">02</div>
  <!-- ... -->
  <!-- ... -->
  <!-- ... -->
  <!-- ... -->
</div>

Center

Use justify-self-center to align a grid item along the center its inline axis:

<div class="grid justify-items-stretch ...">
  <!-- ... -->
  <div class="justify-self-center ...">02</div>
  <!-- ... -->
  <!-- ... -->
  <!-- ... -->
  <!-- ... -->
</div>

End

Use justify-self-end to align a grid item to the end its inline axis:

<div class="grid justify-items-stretch ...">
  <!-- ... -->
  <div class="justify-self-end ...">02</div>
  <!-- ... -->
  <!-- ... -->
  <!-- ... -->
  <!-- ... -->
</div>

Stretch

Use justify-self-stretch to stretch a grid item to fill the grid area on its inline axis:

<div class="grid justify-items-start ...">
  <!-- ... -->
  <div class="justify-self-stretch ...">02</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-self-end to only apply the justify-self-end utility on hover.

<div class="justify-self-start hover:justify-self-end">
  <!-- ... -->
</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-self-end to apply the justify-self-end utility at only medium screen sizes and above.

<div class="justify-self-start md:justify-self-end">
  <!-- ... -->
</div>
