          <div class="text-center">
            <p>
              Lorem ipsum dolor sit, amet consectetur adipisicing elit. Recusandae nihil hic
              delectus excepturi ipsam reprehenderit iusto rem, quam, repellendus accusantium culpa
              reiciendis sit dolorum aut aperiam a architecto. Fuga, sit.
            </p>
          </div>
        

Center image

You can also center the image by adding the .text-center class to the image's parent element.


          <div class="text-center">
            <img src="https://mdbootstrap.com/img/logo/mdb192x192.webp" class="img-fluid" alt="" />
          </div>
        

Center button

The same as above, add the .text-center to the parent element of the button to center it.


          <div class="text-center">
            <button type="button" class="btn btn-primary">Primary</button>
          </div>
        

Center column

By using flexbox you can center the entire the column of the grid.

This is a row
This column (.col-md-6) is centered

          <!--Grid row-->
          <div class="row d-flex justify-content-center">
            <!--Grid column-->
            <div class="col-md-6">
              This column is centered
            </div>
            <!--Grid column-->
          </div>
          <!--Grid row-->
        

Flexbox options

Use justify-content utilities on flexbox containers to change the alignment of flex items on the main axis (the x-axis to start, y-axis if flex-direction: column). Choose from start (browser default), end, center, between, around, or evenly.
