Evenly distributes child elements within a parent element.

<div class="evenly-distributed-children">
  <p>Item1</p>
  <p>Item2</p>
  <p>Item3</p>
</div>

.evenly-distributed-children {
  display: flex;
  justify-content: space-between;
}

Explanation

1. display: flex enables flexbox.
2. justify-content: space-between evenly distributes child elements horizontally. The first item is positioned at the left edge, while the last item is positioned at the right edge.

Note: Alternatively, use justify-content: space-around to distribute the children with space around them, rather than between them.
