Centering A Div

Nothing screams "I've been hurt before" quite like a developer writing a comprehensive guide to centering a div. You know you've reached peak frontend when someone mocks your CSS skills and your immediate response is to document 58 different methods—grid, flexbox, the forbidden table-cell technique, align-content, and "that trick Temani showed."

The beautiful irony here? After writing this magnum opus of horizontal and vertical alignment, they're right back where they started. The cycle never ends. Someone will always ask if you can center a div, because CSS has given us so many ways to do it that nobody can remember which one actually works in their specific nightmare scenario.

Flexbox was supposed to save us. Grid was supposed to be the final answer. Yet here we are, still Googling "how to center a div" in 2024.
