Search Bar CSS Styling is Not Displaying Properly

[Anket08042003]

The search bar styling on the homepage does not match the overall aesthetic and consistency of the website. Specifically, it appears misaligned or disproportionate compared to the rest of the elements, negatively affecting the user interface and user experience.

The current implementation of the search bar presents several visual issues:

• The height and width of the search bar are not consistent with surrounding elements.
• The padding and margin are misaligned, making the bar look either cramped or overly extended.
• The color contrast, especially in light or dark modes, makes the search input hard to read or poorly integrated with the theme.
• The dropdown for filtering (e.g., "JavaScript") lacks proper alignment and spacing, contributing to a cluttered look.
• The search icon/button is not aligned or looks disproportionate, creating a visually unappealing interface.

These issues are prominent when the site is used across different screen resolutions and affect the overall usability and aesthetic of the page. A responsive and more cohesive design should be applied to the search bar component to improve its look and feel.

Expected Behavior:

• The search bar should have consistent padding and margin with a well-balanced layout.
• Dropdown elements should align perfectly with the search box and not disrupt the flow of the design.
• The overall component should integrate seamlessly into both dark and light mode themes.
• The search input text should be legible, and the entire component should respond well to different screen sizes.

I'd like to take ownership of this issue related to the CSS styling of the search bar. I'll work on improving its alignment, responsiveness, and overall design to ensure it matches the site's theme and functions properly across all screen sizes and modes.

Please assign this issue to me.
