Naming Conventions

Shorthand	Description
grid	display: grid
flex	display: flex
row	flex-direction: row or grid-auto-flow: column;
col	flex-direction: column or grid-auto-flow: row;
wrap	flex-wrap: wrap

Combine one of these...

Shorthand	Description
jc...	justify-content
ai...	align-items
as...	align-self*

...with one of these...

Shorthand	Description
...s	start*
...c	centre*
...e	end*
...f	stretch (fill)*
...b	space-between
...a	space-around
...v	space-evenly

...and you get all of the flexbox and grid alignment properties as atomic class names.

Examples

If you want space things on either end in a navbar:

<nav class='flex jcb'>
  <child1/>
  <child2/>
</nav>

This would be the same as giving the parent a class .nav {
  display: flex;
  justify-content: space-between;
}


Say you want something dead center in a parent div:

<parentDiv class='grid x' >
  <child/>
</parentDiv>

This would be the same as giving the parent a class .parent {
  display: grid;
  place items: center center;
}
