How to justify content in a flex container
If the items do not fill the whole space available to them, you can use the CSS justify-content
property to align them along the horizontal axis of the flex or grid container:
div {
/* For Safari browsers */
   display: -webkit-flex;
   -webkit-justify-content: flex-end;
/* Standard */
display: flex;
justify-content: flex-end;
}
Tip: to accomplish the same task on the vertical axis, use align-content.
