In case the flex-container has multiple lines (when, flex-wrap: wrap), the align-content property defines the alignment of each line within the container.
Usage −
align-content: flex-start | flex-end | center | space-between | space-around | stretch;
This property accepts the following values −
-
stretch − The lines in the content will stretch to fill up the remaining space.
-
flex-start − All the lines in the content are packed at the start of the container.
-
flex-end − All the lines in the content are packed at the end of the container.
-
center − All the lines in the content are packed at the center of the container.
-
space-between − The extra space is distributed between the lines evenly.
-
space-around − The extra space is distributed between the lines evenly with equal space around each line (including the first and last lines)
center
On passing this value to the property align-content, all the lines are packed at the center of the container.
The following example demonstrates the result of passing the value center to the align-content property.
