July 18, 2024

Hi Friends 👋,

Welcome To aHoisting!

To add left and right padding in react js, you can set padding-left: 50px; and padding-right: 50px; in .padding. It will add left and right padding in react js.

Today, I am going to show you, how to add left and right padding in react js.

Table of contents

  • Install and create a new React app.
  • Import react component.
  • Create a Component.

Let’s start with the first step.

Step 1: Install and create a new React app.

First you have to install the React project. You should use create-react-app command to create a new React project.

npx create-react-app my-app
cd my-app
npm start

Step 2: Import react component.

After installing, you have to import your React component. To do this, add the following line to the top of your component file.

import React from 'react';
import "./App.css";

Step 3: Create a Component.

You can use className="padding" to add left and right padding in react js.

<div className='padding'>
    This div has left and right padding.
</div>

Add left and right padding example.

The below code is an example of a React. You have to import "./App.css" and set padding-left: 50px; and padding-right: 50px; in .padding to add left and right padding in react js.

App.js

import React from 'react';
import "./App.css";

function App() {
  return (
    <div className='left-right-padding'>
      This div has left and right padding.
    </div>
  );
}

export default App;

App.css

.left-right-padding{
  border-right-style: solid;
  border-left-style: solid;
  width: max-content;
  padding-left: 50px; 
  padding-right: 50px; 
}

In the above code example, I have used the padding-left: 50px; and padding-right: 50px; to add left and right padding in react js.

Check the output of the above code.

React, add, left, and, right, padding

All the best 👍
