Div Columns not aligning correctly in Django/Python

I’m following along a tutorial and, unfortunately, his code editor automatically indented everything when he copied/pasted a new <div> (Sigh) (In the second pic I cut off the top where it has LOGO in the top right on accident in the screenshot) The problem is i Room.html

This is what it currently looks like

This is what it should look like

Room.html File

        display: grid;
        grid-template-columns: 3fr 1fr;
            )
    </style>

        <div class="room-container">

Answer

There’s a lot of problems with your room.html file. First off, you want to use curly braces in your CSS style definition. Next, you want to paste your html into a code editor and make sure all the div tags line up appropriately.

For now, though, this should work.

room.html

{% extends 'main.html' %}

{% block content%}

<!-- don't forget curly braces for css definitions-->
<style>
    .room-container {
        display: grid;
        grid-template-columns: 3fr 1fr;
    }
</style>

<div class="room-container">
    <div>
        <!-- this is 3fr region -->
        <h1>{{room.name}}</h1>
        <p>{{room.description}}</p>

        <div class="comment-wrapper">
                <h3> Conversations </h3>
                <hr>
    {% for message in room_messages %}
            <div>
                <a href="{% url 'delete-message' message.id %}">Delete</a>
                <small>@{{message.user}} {{message.created|timesince}} ago </small>
                <p>{{message.body}}</p>
                <hr>
            </div>
    {% endfor %}
        </div>
        <div>
    {% if request.user.is_authenticated %}
            <div class="comment-for">
                <form method="POST" action="">
                {% csrf_token %}
                <input type="text" name="body" placeholder="Comment here.." />
                </form>
            </div>
    {% endif %}
        </div>
    </div>
    <div>
        <!-- this is 1fr region -->
        <h3>Participants</h3>
        <hr>

    {% for user in participants %}
        <div>
            <p>@{{user.username}}</p>
        </div>
    {% endfor %}
    </div>
</div>
