align-items and align-content?
align-items
align-content
The
align-items property of flex-box aligns items within a Flex container along the horizontal axis, just like justify-content aligns along the main axis. (With the default flex-direction: row, the cross axis corresponds to the vertical direction and the main axis corresponds to the horizontal direction. When using flex-direction: column, these two axes can be aligned with each other separately. Change).
property of
justify-content
flex-direction: row
flex-direction: column
The following is an example of what align-items:center looks like:
align-items:center
But align-content works for multi-line flexboxes. It has no effect when the items are in a row. It aligns the entire structure according to its value. Here is an example of align-content: space-around;:
align-content: space-around;
This is what align-content: space-around; looks like with align-items:center:
Notice that the third box in the first row and all other boxes change to be vertically centered in that row.
Here are some codepen links you can use:

This is a super cool pen that displays and allows you to use almost anything in Flexbox.
