Menu
When the game starts, flexbox centering works great (on static objects). During the game progress both (title and remain divs) change their values/sizes, so that causes to constantly adjusting center positioning by flexbox (all divs in header are moving).
I want each div inside header to stay "fixed" during the game.
Is that possible just by using flexbox or should i use another approach? Should I position each element individually?
You can watch header behaviour on the remote server: https://stacho163.000webhostapp.com/firstLevel.html
body {
margin: 0;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
}
header {
display: flex;
justify-content: space-around;
align-items: center;
background-color: white;
}
#game-window {
position: absolute;
width: 90vw;
height: 90vw * 16/9;
top: 50%;
left: 50%;
transform: translate(-50%, -46%);
background-color: gray;
}<body>
<header>
<div id="lifes">
Life1 Life2 Life3
</div>
<div id="title">
Title (changes when you win)
</div>
<div id="remain">
Remaining: (from 100 to 0)
</div>
</header>
<canvas id="game-window"></canvas>
</body>https://jsfiddle.net/nfzj183t/14/
I am asking, as I don't have much experience in web stuff and i want to use the correct approach to solve this simple problem.
Thank you in advance for your tips :)

One approach could be to use grid for the main layout and inside every element of grid, use flexbox components.
header would be something like:
header {
display: grid;
grid-template-columns: repeat(3,1fr);
grid-template-rows: 10vh;
}
And you will need to make every column a "display: flex;" container. This would be an example with the "lifes":
#lifes{
display: flex;
align-items: center;
justify-content: center;
}
I can show you more complex examples if needed.
