According to the HTML GetUiKit documentation, this html code should create 3 nice buttons, with a rectangle around the text. But this code only shows the text of the button, without the rectangle. https://getuikit.com/v2/docs/button.html

how to solve this?
You are referring to old documentation and a lot of things were changed since v2. Have a look at current UIKit v3 (as you're using v3 in the snippet and you've used it in the previous question too)

Below you can see correctly used classes.
