Center can be used to create frames around icons or numbers.

Square and Circle

To reduce boilerplate, we've exported Square and Circle components that automatically centers its children given the size.

  <Circle size='40px' bg='tomato' color='white'>
    <PhoneIcon />
  </Circle>
  <Square size='40px' bg='purple.700' color='white'>
    <PhoneIcon />
  </Square>
</HStack>

AbsoluteCenter

Used to horizontally and vertically center an element relative to its parent dimensions. Uses the position: absolute strategy. Takes axis prop which is could be "both" (by default), "horizontal" or "vertical".
