Attachment: image.png

STR: Type " ".padStart(10, " ") in Console.

ER: 10-character " " in both

(TIL: Code preview in bugzilla also isn't formatting whitespace correctly.)

Good first bug as this fix should be CSS only.

Hello Pranav, that's nice of you to ask, but this is tagged as a good-first-bug, and you are already assigned to a few bugs.

Thanks Samarjeet,

The bug is yours :)
You can read how to setup the work environment on https://docs.firefox-dev.tools/getting-started/
I also recommend you to use the Browser Toolbox (https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Tools/Browser_Toolbox) to debug this issue; it's like devtools for devtools, so you'd be able to check if it's indeed a CSS issue.
Let us know what you find!
