6,122 PointsInside the jQuery each() method, use prepend() to add an '<input type="checkbox"/>' to the beginning of each list item.
$('.favorite-things li').each(function() {
const $url=$('<input type="checkbox"/>');
$('.favorite-things').prepend((${$url})
);
});

Inside the each() method you need to use $(this) and inside the prepend method '<input type="checkbox"/>'
Happy coding

Since you're already iterating through the list items with the .each() method, you can take advantage of this to prepend to each of the list items:
$('.favorite-things li').each(function() {
const $checkbox = $('<input type="checkbox"/>');
$(this).prepend($checkbox);
});
