How to Center in CSS

iOS developer here. AutoLayout is definitely not borderline magic, and some people hate it.

It is inefficient. It is awkward to set up in code, so many people write their own syntactic sugar around it. It crashes hard when it isn't 100% sure what to do with its constraints. Working with multi-line text is still a pain, so you often run into clipped text on iOS if you dare to increase the font size. etc.

Anonymous downvoters, AutoLayout may work great for you, but it is definitely controversial among iOS developers (more so than e.g. ARC). Nothing wrong with pointing that out.

Hey thanks for the reply. I don't work on mobile apps at all, so I really wasn't aware. It's definitely interesting to see your point of view,
