A different approach is needed in this situation. By setting the container as a flex wrapper, absolute positioning becomes unnecessary and the additional square-container div wrapping the div.square can be eliminated.
To align the square to the right, there are two potential solutions:
A) Utilize auto-margins within the flex layout. By adding margin-left: auto to the div.square, it instructs the browser to position it as far away as possible from its left siblings.
B) Apply justify-content: space-between to the container. This directive prompts the flex container to evenly distribute the elements towards the sides.
While these methods offer minor variations, they may not have a significant impact in this scenario unless more elements are introduced.
Here is an updated example:
A
.container {
display: flex;
align-items: center;
background-color: skyblue;
padding: 15px;
}
.square {
height: 30px;
width: 30px;
margin-left: auto;
background-color: tomato;
}
<div class='container'>
<p class='hello'>Hello</p>
<div class='square'></div>
</div>
B
.container {
display: flex;
align-items: center;
justify-content: space-between;
background-color: skyblue;
padding: 15px;
}
.square {
height: 30px;
width: 30px;
background-color: tomato;
}
<div class='container'>
<p class='hello'>Hello</p>
<div class='square'></div>
</div>
