Centering a button using flexbox

heretolearn88 · Feb 5, 2023

I'm trying to center a button inside of a div that has a background img. I was able to position my navbar at the top and spaced evenly using flexbox. How would I center a button in this same div with background img and navbar. My code is below. I prefer it be done using flexbox, but I'm open to other suggestions.

body {
text-align: center;
font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
}
/* Header BG Img */
.bgimg {
background-image: url(images/2.jpeg);
min-height: 380px;
background-position: center;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-size: cover;
}
/* NAVBAR */
.navbar {
display: flex;
justify-content: space-evenly;
}
.navbar a {
text-decoration: none;
font-size: 20px;
padding: 14px 20px;
}
.navbar a:hover {
background-color: black;
color: white;
}

</style>

<div class="bgimg">

<div class="navbar">

We use the property of display set to flex i.e. display: flex;
Align items to center using align-items: center;
The last step is to set justify-content to center i.e. justify-content: center;
