# downwindcss/flex-center

A Tailwind CSS component for centering flex content in the middle.  

Basically, instead of `flex justify-center items-center`, 

you do `flex-center`.

`flex-center` generates following CSS rule (disregarding responsive variants).

```css

.flex-center {

  display: flex;

  justify-content: center;

  align-items: center;

}

```

## Installation

```bash

npm install @downwindcss/flex-center

# using Yarn

yarn add @downwindcss/flex-center

# with PNPM

pnpm install @downwindcss/flex-center

```

## Configuration

In your Tailwind CSS configuration file, `tailwindcss.config.js`,  

add the plugin after following the installation step above.

```json

module.exports = {

  plugins: [require('@downwindcss/flex-center')]

}

```

Only `responsive` variant is enabled by default.  

Same as `flex` utility: https://tailwindcss.com/docs/flex#variants

## Motivation

I found myself typing `flex justify-center items-center` too many times!  

Ain't nobody got time for that.

Just type `flex-center` and be doen with it.
