Responsive

To place items at a specific breakpoint, add a {screen}: prefix to any existing place-items utility. For example, use md:place-items-center to apply the place-items-center utility at only medium screen sizes and above.

<div class="place-items-start md:place-items-center">
<!-- ... -->
</div>
