This historical difficulty of centring things vertically in CSS was like one of those little "fossil record" hints or clues to where this crazy thing all came from. Publishing scientific "documents" at CERN... not application layout out all. How much cortisol has been spilled failing at the task of centering shit?!

Sometime around 2015 I had to vertically center the output of a WordPress plugin in the viewport without editing the markup. My solution? Something like this: ``` display: table !important; height: 100vh !important; display: table-cell !important; vertical-align: middle; ``` Good times 👌
