Need help with setting up my flexboxes in CSS

I'm building my first website. I am trying to build flexboxes in my home page and on my resume page. I'm having difficulty trying to get the code to work and continue to get syntax errors. I am trying to create some blocks for my navigation menu, background, two boxes around my text and a box for my resume heading & contact page.

I kinda feel like that I should have created my flex container and boxes when I started but I am trying figure out how I can write the correct code in the project without screwing up the syntax.

Please help. I'm smack brand new to coding and don't need a scolding at this point.

I've pasted the url for my file. I'm not quite if this will work but we can find out a way where I can send the file upon request.

Thanks,

Jason

before you make a website you need to start off small make really simple projects like a div colored box thats centered in the middle of the page.

you should fix the colon font-weight: #; in head src needs quotes like src="" otherwise it wont get the file.
