Css center text

/* To center text, you need to use text-align. */

.centerText {
  text-align: center; /* This puts the text into the center of the 
  screen. */
}

/* There are also other things that you can use in text-align:
left, right, and justify. Left and right make the test align to the
right or left of the screen, while justify makes the text align both
sides by spreading out spaces between some words and squishing others. */

How to center divs in css

{{-- this is my code 

there is two ways to do it
the first method using flex box
--}}

<html>
<body>
<style>
    .center {
        display: flex;
        align-items: center;
        justify-content: center;
    }
</style>

<div>
    <h1 class="center">title</h1>
    <h4 class="center">body</h4>
    <div class="center">
    <img src="https://cdn.pixabay.com/photo/2015/04/23/22/00/tree-736885__480.jpg" height="400px" width="400px" >
    </div>
</div>
</body>
</html>

{{-- 
but the problem with this method that you need to give each element the center class
and in the case of some elments such as an image you need to wrap it inside a div
and pass the center class to it
--}}






{{--  the other way is using css grid --}}

<style>
    .center {
        display: grid;
        place-items: center;
    }
</style>

<div class="center">
    <h1 >title</h1>
    <h4>body</h4>
    <img src="https://cdn.pixabay.com/photo/2015/04/23/22/00/tree-736885__480.jpg" height="400px" width="400px" >
</div>

{{--
the cool thing about this method that you just need to pass the center class,
in the parent div and evreything inside this div will be centered
and for example you dont need to put the image elemnt in a div in order for it to work
