Looking at your code, what you have done is created p
element inside index.html
file and selected by its tag name in app.js
file.
But in the challenge, it is asking you to dynamically create a p
element and assign it to the newParagraph
variable.
var newParagraph = document.createElement('p');
Hope this helps!!
