- Box Model: profile cards, alerts, buttons instead of generic boxes - Flexbox: navigation bars, headers, toolbars, card layouts - Grid: photo gallery with SVG images, product cards, dashboard layout - Colors: notification alerts, buttons, badges with visible changes - Units/Variables: article width, brand variables, sidebar calc, hero vh - Responsive: feature cards grid instead of numbered divs - Added missing solutions to enable "Show Expected" feature - Fixed barely visible border color change in colors lesson 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code)

"description": "CSS Grid is a two-dimensional layout system, meaning it can handle both columns AND rows simultaneously. While Flexbox excels at one-dimensional layouts (a single row or column), Grid shines when you need precise control over both dimensions—like photo galleries, dashboards, or page layouts.<br><br><strong>How it works:</strong> Set <kbd>display: grid</kbd> on a container, then define columns with <kbd>grid-template-columns</kbd>. The <kbd>fr</kbd> unit represents a fraction of available space—<kbd>1fr 1fr 1fr</kbd> creates three equal columns.<br><br><strong>Key properties:</strong><br>• <kbd>grid-template-columns</kbd> – Defines column sizes<br>• <kbd>repeat(3, 1fr)</kbd> – Shorthand for 3 equal columns<br>• <kbd>gap</kbd> – Adds spacing between grid cells<br><br><pre>.gallery {\n display: grid;\n grid-template-columns: repeat(3, 1fr);\n gap: 1rem;\n}</pre>",
