Text on the left-CodePudding

What I am trying to do here is to align the text "Typerore" to the top left corner, but the text is positioned in the left center.

I tried using the "left:" tag in CSS, but that did not work, I also tried using "float:left" but that did not work either.

I was wondering what tag do I need to use to align the div "title" to the top left.

* {
  box-sizing: border-box;
}

body {
  display: flex;
  justify-content: center;
  align-items: center;
  min-height: 100vh;
  margin: 0;
  background-color: coral;
}

body,
.quote-input {
  font-family: 'Fredoka', sans-serif;
}

.container {
  background-color: lightgrey;
  padding: 1rem;
  border-radius: .5rem;
  width: 700px;
  max-width: 90%;
}

.timer {
  position: absolute;
  top: 2rem;
  font-size: 3rem;
  color: grey;
  font-weight: bold;
}

.quote-display {
  margin-bottom: 1rem;
  margin-left: calc(1rem   2px);
  margin-right: calc(1rem   2px);
}

.quote-input {
  background-color: transparent;
  border: 2px solid #A1922E;
  outline: none;
  width: 100%;
  height: 8rem;
  margin: auto;
  resize: none;
  padding: .5rem 1rem;
  font-size: 1rem;
  border-radius: .5rem;
}

.quote-input:focus {
  border-color: black;
}

.correct {
  color: green;
}

.incorrect {
  color: red;
  text-decoration: underline;
}

I Made a Quick solve for you (maybe no the best, but works fine), i changed "id=title" to "class=title" because you use the dot (.title) in css file.

You can add a margin

Also do use divs instead of making the whole body flex

Lastly you had .title instead of #title in the CSS

* {
  box-sizing: border-box;
}

#main {
  display: flex;
  justify-content: center;
  align-items: center;
  min-height: 100vh;
  margin: 0;
  background-color: coral;
}

body,
.quote-input {

.container {

  position: absolute;
  top: 2rem;
  font-size: 3rem;

  font-weight: bold;
}

.quote-display {

  margin-left: calc(1rem   2px);
  margin-right: calc(1rem   2px);

Set height of #title to rendered height of container. Then to get the text at the very top corner you will have to remove the default margin on h1.
