Add a view function named index. Give this view a route of "/". Make the view return your name. You do not need to use a

sintax error on def index

flask_app.py
from flask import Flask

app = Flask(__name__)

# Your code goes here
def index()
@app.route("/")
return "Andres Vicente"

I think you messed up the order.

Try this:

flask_app.py
from flask import Flask

app = Flask(__name__)

# Your code goes here

@app.route("/")
def index():
    return "Andres Vicente"

Good luck! ~Alex
