I have the below flex items. I want to align the HeaderContainer items.

I am using margin-top and margin-left, margin-right in btnCss class to align the items.

I want the Header Title to be in center and button to top right with some margins.

Is it possible to achieve this without margin-top, left, right?

Below is the CSS:

.parentContainer {
  display: flex;
  flex-direction: column;
  align-items:center;
  width: 100%;
  height: 100%;
}

.headerContainer {
  width: 100%;
    display: flex;
    flex-direction: row;
    justify-content: flex-end;
}

.btnCss {
  margin-top: 23px;
  margin-left: 280px;
  margin-right: 20px;
}

Try this justify-content: space-between;

.headerContainer {
    width: 100%;
    display: flex;
    flex-direction: row;
    justify-content: space-between;
}

Yes you can achieve it instead of using margins you can use position relative to the viewports that is top, bottom, left, right properties to position the element.

.parentContainer {
  width: 100%;
  height: 100%;
  position: relative;
  text-align: center;
}

.btnCss {
  position: absolute;
  top: 0;
  left: 50rem;
}
