While the card looks neat, the button is currently aligned to the left in the footer. You want it to sit perfectly in the center—let’s see how we can achieve that.

The Solution: CSS Classes to the Rescue

The solution lies in using Bootstrap’s built-in utility classes. Here’s how you can modify the existing code:

Step 1: Use d-flex

First, we will make the card footer a flex container. This enables us to use flex properties to align items within it.

Step 2: Apply mx-auto

Next, to center the button, we'll add the mx-auto class to the button itself. This class applies automatic margins on both sides of an element, effectively centering it in a flex container.

Here’s the Updated Code

Implementing these changes will give you the following code structure:

d-flex: This class makes the card footer a flex container, engaging the powerful features of CSS Flexbox.

mx-auto: By applying this utility class to the button, we set equal margins on both sides, ensuring that it is exactly centered.

Conclusion

By following these simple steps, you can achieve a cleaner, more professional-looking card with a perfectly centered button. Bootstrap’s utility classes make it easier than ever to align elements in your layout, allowing for both speed and efficiency in your web development projects.
