Bootstrap - vertical alignment of columns does not work-CodePudding

I'm in the process of learning bootstrap, and I seem to be stuck at one of the most basic things - vertical alignment of columns. I am trying to get content to be anything but aligned at the top, but failing miserably.

I rewrote my code multiple times, but got no result. I started a new html document with just the code from bootstrap's documentation, but everything is still aligned at the top of the document. What am I missing here?

To align all the items inside a grid we have multiple classes.

1. All the item's text starts from the start with align-items-start

You're looking for the align-items-start class in Bootstrap.
