In Flexbox It doesn't matter the order as they are in the same flex container (context) [Flex-Box Container {Item}{Item}{Item}{Item}]

5,027 PointsI don't know where you are doing height 100% but if you are doing it to footer that's not a good idea to send footer to bottom and it won't work. First the reason why footer height 100% doesn't work is probably you haven't declared explicit height value to parent element, percentage needs some sort of base context to work. Even if you managed to get the height 100% on footer it will only send it to top while using extra empty space to bottom.
If you want to position footer always to be at bottom, try positioning it to absolute then send it to bottom by setting positional property.
