Research direction
Inspect the certificates section template in ` includes/` or ` layouts/`. Look for CSS classes related to certificate cards, possibly in ` sass/`. Test with a sample resume.json containing a certificate title spanning two lines. Adjust CSS to handle long titles gracefully, e.g., using word break or overflow properties. Consider checking existing CSS for similar sections like publications or talks for consistent styling.
