I don’t do web dev, I write math software that makes very rich people richer. But I often hear of this centering and layout crap

Why doesn’t html just have hcenter and vcenter tags or something? Why is centering so hard?

As a frontend dev: who knows?

HTML has moved on from non-semantic tags a long time ago, and centering is easy with modern CSS.

Since when does HTML not have a simple centering tag?

Edit: Since HTML5 apparently. Wow wtf?! I haven’t actually used HTML since I was in high school. That’s wild.
