Context: When displaying learning items in the index view, the selection checkbox and title were misaligned, with the title appearing below the checkbox. Resolution: I implemented a CSS-only selectable box pattern using hidden checkboxes and custom indicators, along with careful flexbox alignment (`display: flex`, `align-items: center`) and margin adjustments to ensure consistent layout. Learning: Pure CSS solutions can often replace JavaScript for simple interactions. I learned that using the `<label>` element wrapping a checkbox creates native toggle behavior. CSS selectors like `:checked + .element` enable styling based on input states. Flexbox is powerful for alignment.
