Examples

Start

Use content-start to pack rows in a container against the start of the cross axis:

01
02
03
04
05
<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:

01
02
03
04
05
<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:

01
02
03
04
05
<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:

01
02
03
04
05
<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:

01
02
03
04
05
<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:

01
02
03
04
05
<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:

01
02
03
04
05
<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:

01
02
03
04
05
<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>

Learn more about using variants in the variants documentation.
