Flexbox - align-self: flex-end horizontally

Question

How to align div.c to the right end with flexbox like below?

+--------------+
|A  B        C |
+--------------+

The rule align-self: flex-end; seems to align the box to the bottom even though flex-direction: row;

+--------------+
|A  B          |
|      C       |
+--------------+

.container {
  border: 2px solid;
  height: 500px;
  display: flex;
  flex-direction: row;
}

.box {
  border: 1px solid;
  height: 200px;
  width: 50px;
}

.a {
  background-color: red;
  align-self: flex-start;
}

.b {
  background-color: cyan;
  align-self: flex-start
}

.c {
  background-color: green;
  align-self: flex-end;
}

<div class="container">
  <div class="box a">
  </div>
  <div class="box b">
  </div>
  <div class="box c">
  </div>
</div>

Answer 1

align-self: flex-end; only goes "column", in your case you have two options:

1. justify-content: space-between; on .container, fiddle

2. remove the align-self on both elements and use margin-left: auto; on .b, fiddle

.container {
  border: 2px solid;
  height: 500px;
  display: flex;
  flex-direction: row;
  justify-content: space-between;
}

.box {
  border: 1px solid;
  height: 200px;
  width: 50px;
}

.a {
  background-color: red;
}

.b {
  background-color: cyan;
}

.container {
  border: 2px solid;
  height: 500px;
  display: flex;
  flex-direction: row; 
}

.box {
  border: 1px solid;
  height: 200px;
  width: 50px;
}

.a {
  background-color: red;
}

.b {
  background-color: cyan;
  margin-left: auto;
}

EDIT
now that you edited your question to be 3 boxes you can have a look at this fiddle,

.a {
  background-color: red;
}

.b {
  background-color: cyan;
}

.c {
  background-color: deepskyblue;
  margin-left: auto;
}
