Flex vertical align not working

Why does the align-items: center in flex not work? I've used justify-content, flex-direction, align-items, display:flex and even set the button as a flex item. It won't center vertically. https://code.sololearn.com/WTkLeDeOBQBe/?ref=app

Clueless Coder I use unit % rather than vh, vw whenever possible. It should be better practice, it's more versatile for building component for container, rather than constraint by the fixed dimension.
