warning: I am new to programming and I am trying to help a friend out. Yes I did ask chatgpt for help before this and it wasn’t working out.
My friend made a website through shopify and he wanted a countdown timer to be coded for him since they don’t have that on shopify. I decided to try to program it myself and I have it basically done but I can’t center it. As dumb as that may sound I have tried everything of my knowledge within the styling to center it in the middle of the screen but I can’t. How do I do this?

/* Center vertically */

You are targeting
.wrap
but you don’t have a class called that in your html. If you update that, and also give the element 100% width and height, it centres.You are targeting .wrap but you don’t have a class
