Is it just me or is the irony lost on the author? It says "align-content: center" but it's only vertically aligned...
That's because under flexbox for horizontal alignment you use a different property called
justify-content
.Right, which isn't confusing at all /s
There's a learning curve but it makes sense once you've used it for a bit. I recommend the frog game: https://flexboxfroggy.com/
Because we already have a way to center text horizontally...
Yes but my grief was with the naming... why not call it vertical-center? Just "center" is very confusing to me because it does not include horizontal.
Because of consistency with the rest of the box model
