Auto

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

html
<div class="grid grid-cols-3 gap-2">
  <div class="place-self-auto">
    <!-- ... -->
  </div>
</div>
<div class="grid grid-cols-3 gap-2">
  <div class="place-self-auto">
    <!-- ... -->
  </div>
</div>

Start

Use place-self-start to align an item to the start on both axes:

html
<div class="grid grid-cols-3 gap-2">
  <div class="place-self-start">
    <!-- ... -->
  </div>
</div>
<div class="grid grid-cols-3 gap-2">
  <div class="place-self-start">
    <!-- ... -->
  </div>
</div>

Center

Use place-self-center to align an item at the center on both axes:

html
<div class="grid grid-cols-3 gap-2">
  <div class="place-self-center">
    <!-- ... -->
  </div>
</div>
<div class="grid grid-cols-3 gap-2">
  <div class="place-self-center">
    <!-- ... -->
  </div>
</div>

End

Use place-self-end to align an item to the end on both axes:

html
<div class="grid grid-cols-3 gap-2">
  <div class="place-self-end">
    <!-- ... -->
  </div>
</div>
<div class="grid grid-cols-3 gap-2">
  <div class="place-self-end">
    <!-- ... -->
  </div>
</div>

Stretch

Use place-self-stretch to stretch an item on both axes:

html
<div class="grid grid-cols-3 gap-2">
  <div class="place-self-stretch">
    <!-- ... -->
  </div>
</div>
<div class="grid grid-cols-3 gap-2">
  <div class="place-self-stretch">
    <!-- ... -->
  </div>
</div>

Responsive

To place an item at a specific breakpoint, add a {screen}: prefix to any existing place-self utility. For example, use md:place-self-end to apply the place-self-end utility at only medium screen sizes and above.

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