This answer not only uses flexbox, but also shows a generic structure for creating a flexbox app. The main functionalities have been split for clarity. With the comment inside the code you should have enough to get you well on the way.
With your permission I would like to use your HTML in a CodePen example. Please let me know whether you object.
