Oh my sweet summer child. As a pro having done this thing for decades, the industry standard in 2020 is to randomly throw margins, negative margins, and paddings on _everything_ (probably in JS/JSX) in the vicinity of the thing you're trying to position and visually iterate until things looks okay-ish. Probably by a dozen people simultaneously on the project, some of whom may have read an article on CSS once. After a year or two the whole thing is chucked out anyway. And that's all right, it gets the job done.
