Hi guys, please I need help with the .env file challenge …
I created the .env file and in it (the first line) in have exactly this code “MESSAGE_STYLE=uppercase” - - without the quotes.

In my “myApp.js” file, I have “app.get(”/json", (req, res) => {
res.json({
“message” : process.env.MESSAGE_STYLE=uppercase ? “Hello json”.toUpperCase() : “Hello json”
});
});"

but my code is still not updating the /json path… what am I doing wrong?
Your code so far

Oh! thank you, I’ve got it I should have used “===” and the “uppercase” value in the .js file should have been in quotes since it’s not in a .env file… Thank you for taking the time.
