      </div>
    </React.Fragment>
  );
}

the active circle needs to be always the center of windows horizontally.
and the remaining circles need to be auto align based on the active circle.

how to do this? i hope u will understand. anyone can please help me?

i try to explain here.

in this code above, the active dot circle will be in the center.
so what u need to do is,
current

1) get the total width of widows.
2) get the center of the total width position.
3) get the current position of active dot.

ex diagram.

|-------------------|-------------------|
1000px ( total width )

----active-dot-------------------------
250px

so,

we need to measure. how much space or px u need to move active dot for making it center?

(total width ) - ( center position ) - (active dot position )
ex 1:
result = 1000px - 500px - 500px = 250px

ex 2:
result = 1000px - 500px - 800px = -350px

so now
(active dot position ) + ( result )
ex 1:
250px + 250px = 500px
ex 2:
800px + ( - 300px ) = 500px

so using this calculation make an active dot position center ( use css translateX or any other )

and other not active dots will auto align

how to make dynamic element center horizontally in react js?
