Okay but how do u center a div in 2025

If using plain CSS, usually it's enough to set width appropriately, and margin-left and margin-right to auto.

If using a Modern Frontend/CSS Framework, then may God have mercy on your poor soul.

(Seriously I just started a new project with TailwindCSS and I'm so confused. But not entirely desperate yet.)

So what is the point of these frameworks if they make it harder?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago

Generally I find many these frameworks will make some complicated things simple, but the cost is some things that were once simple are now complicated. They can be great if you just need the things they simplify - or in other words can stick to what they were intended for, but my favorite way of keeping things simple is to avoid using complicated and heavy frameworks.
