How would you recommend I go about centering an element in a page body. Let’s say a block of text or an image or a form. What is the best way to display this centered? Should I approach it by writing custom CSS using margin: 0 auto?

Just trying to keep my code clean. Any advice would really help!

It really depends on the element itself, but generally using margin: 0 auto; on block elements, will do the trick. Inline elements such as span or img, go with text-align: center; on their parent, but you need to make sure they’re not defined as block elements in CSS (with display: block;)

Regards,
