Line Geometry

1. text-align

left/right: Default for different languages.
center: Perfect for headings, but bad for long paragraphs.
justify: Stretches text " in block " .

Warning

text-align: justify on the web is dangerous. Unlike printed books, browsers don't always know how to beautifully break words, leading to " holes " in text (rivers of emptiness).

2. Modern Features

text-align-last: How to align the last line in a justify block.
hyphens: auto: Allows browser to insert hyphens where needed. This " cures " problems with justify.

p {
  text-align: justify;
  hyphens: auto; /* Essential for beautiful full-width alignment */
}
