I am following a tutorial on dealing with cards which is from this link.
https://mdbootstrap.com/docs/b5/react/components/cards/ Trying it on myself the card does not end up centering and stays in same position. However if i remove the code for style maxWidth it seems it centered but does not maintain maxwidth property
Expected behavior
Actual behavior
Resources (screenshots, code snippets etc.)
return (
<MDBCard alignment='center' style={{ maxWidth: '22rem' }}>
<MDBCardHeader>Featured</MDBCardHeader>
<MDBCardBody>
<MDBCardTitle>Special title treatment</MDBCardTitle>
<MDBCardText>With supporting text below as a natural lead-in to additional content.</MDBCardText>
<MDBBtn href='#'>Button</MDBBtn>
</MDBCardBody>
<MDBCardFooter className='text-muted'>2 days ago</MDBCardFooter>
</MDBCard>
);
this is the code used for returning which is from the docs.
here are the imports i used
import 'bootstrap-css-only/css/bootstrap.min.css'; import 'mdbreact/dist/css/mdb.css';

Hi!
I assume you want to center the whole card on the page, right? The alignment
property is meant to center the content of the card. To center it on the page you have to use flexbox utilities. You can wrap your card in <MDBRow className="justify-content-center>{"Your card here"}</MDBRow>
component :)
Keep coding!

Hi!
Do you use an
MDB4 React
orMDB5 React
package? It seems you copied an example from the second one while you are importing a CSS from the first one.Keep coding!

So instead of using the CSS for the first one i replaced and used the second one
import 'mdb-react-ui-kit/dist/css/mdb.min.css'
however it still does not center
