I know...and I kind of got the gist of it except I had a lot of trouble developing an intuition for it by trying to understand the history, other methods and just basically copying source code from existing websites...it's just my process for learning new things and it quickly gets overwhelming with front-end development...

Repeatedly playing https://flexboxfroggy.com/ is better for developing intuition.

I like this guide for flexbox: https://css-tricks.com/snippets/css/a-guide-to-flexbox/

Breaks it down into simple pieces and explains with clear diagrams.

Thankfully with modern browsers nowadays you can open up their dev tools and use them as a 'scratchpad' to play about with CSS.
