Html – CSS – How to place content between my column borders

I think this question is better suited for a "show" don’t tell. So I’ll start off with a screenshot of my current design:

enter image description here

I want the times to show between the columns header, is that even possible? I wish do to it statically right now, I have 16 columns. Technically I have 17, but I want the time to appear from the first column line to the last, so like this:

enter image description here

And if there is a way to make the column borders extend to the top a bit, that would be nice too!

Here’s my code in JSFiddle: https://jsfiddle.net/zqu3n1jw/1/

Here’s the code:

<template>
    <div class="calendar">
        <!-- Header -->

            <div class="calendar__header--time">8:00</div>

    Use text-align:center; and translateX(-50%);.

    Set .calendar__header--time same width as .calendar__cell.

    Add flex-shrink: 0; on .calendar__header--time:first-child and .calendar__cell:first-child to prevent first col become smaller than 16%.

    .calendar__header--time {
  padding-top: 10px;
  color: lightblue;
  width: 6%;
  transform: translateX(-50%);
  text-align: center;
}

.calendar__header--time:first-child {
  width: 16%;
  flex-shrink: 0;
}

.calendar__cell:first-child {
  width: 16%;
  flex-shrink: 0;
  justify-content: left;
  padding: 0;
}

    const {
  createApp
} = Vue;

createApp({
  data() {
    return {
      activities: [{
          name: "Planning"
        },
        {
          name: "Replenishment"
        },
        {
          name: "Picking"
        },
        {
          name: "Packing"

        {

        },
        {
          name: "Problem solving"
        }
      ]
    };
  }
}).mount('#app');
    .calendar {
  min-height: 100%;
  max-width: 100%;
}

.calendar__row {
  display: flex;
  align-items: stretch;
  border-bottom: 1px dashed gray;
}

.calendar__header {
  display: flex;
}

.calendar__header--time {
  padding-top: 10px;
  color: lightblue;
  width: 6%;
  transform: translateX(-50%);
  text-align: center;
}

.calendar__cell {
  box-sizing: border-box;
  flex-grow: 0;
  padding: 8px 12px;
  overflow: hidden;
  list-style: none;
  width: 6%;

    Based on what you are trying to achieve, I would rather use a table which will handle most of the layout for you.

    Adding just a translate 50% on the header will give you the expected rendering:

    th {
  translate: 50%;
}
td {
  border: 1px solid rgb(160 160 160);
  padding: 1rem 2rem;
}
    <table>
  <thead>
    <tr>
      <th>6:00</th>
      <th>7:00</th>
    </tr>
  </thead>
  <tr>
    <td>planning</td>
    <td>cool</td>
    <td>cool</td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td>problem solving</td>
    <td>cool</td>
    <td>cool</td>
  </tr>
</table>
