As @marik999 points out, you could position them horizontally along the main axis using
justify content: flex-end;
and using somemargin
orpadding
, right now you're positioning them to where they are usingjustify content: center;
, that's why they are in the center.By the way, speaking about the social media icons, it's cool you decided to put them into a
<ul>
element, that makes for some nice semantic HTML! But in my opinion it would be better to have each social media icon as a standalone list item (<li>
) instead of having just one<li>
with 3 child elements, that basically defeats the semantic approach introduced by usingul
andli
for these social media icons.Take care, Tom

For the social icons, I made the right side of the page its own
div
, set the height to100vh
, and made itflex
container. Then I put a wrapper around everything except the social icons:.main { height: 100vh; display: flex; align-items: center; justify-content: center; } .flex-wrapper { flex: 1; display: flex; flex-direction: column; justify-content: center; }
As you can see, I set the flex to 1 for the wrapper. I wrapped my icons in their own div within
.main
, and because they're a flex child of the.main
container, I set theirflex
property to 0 and usedflex-end
andmargin
to align them:&__icons { flex: 0; align-self: flex-end; margin-right: 5rem; }
Setting their div to
flex: 0
is the key to making this work: it causes the.flex-wrapper
container to expand and pushes the icons down to the bottom of the page. You can take a look at my code if you want more clarification.Also, for your
body
element on your desktop, add inbackground-size: cover
. This will make your background image cover the entire page. - @manik999
You can justify-content: flex-end in the links class and then give the required padding-right say 5vw. Then you can justify it center at your mobile break point and remove the padding.
