+### Content Alignment
+
+A button centers its content. Alignment set on the button places the content
+instead, so a full-width row keeps its label and children on the leading edge:
+
+```rust
+Button::new("row")
+    .ghost()
+    .w_full()
+    .h_auto()
+    .justify_start()
+    .child(
+        v_flex()
+            .items_start()
+            .child("Pull requests")
+            .child("GitHub"),
+    )
+```
+
+`items_start()` and `items_end()` likewise place the content vertically in a
+button taller than it.

+### 内容对齐
+
+按钮默认将内容居中。在按钮上设置的对齐方式会作用于内容本身，因此整行宽度的按钮也能让标签和子内容靠起始边排列：
+
+```rust
+Button::new("row")
+    .ghost()
+    .w_full()
+    .h_auto()
+    .justify_start()
+    .child(

+            .child("Pull requests")
+            .child("GitHub"),
+    )
+```
+
+同样，当按钮比内容高时，`items_start()` 和 `items_end()` 决定内容在垂直方向上的位置。
