Build a Color Picker App - Build a Color Picker App

Tell us what’s happening:

I can’t pass these tests despite apparently working in the Preview:

2. You should use the useState hook.
5. You should pass #ffffff as the initial value to your useState call.
14. When your #color-input value is changed, your #color-picker-container should change its background color to reflect that value.

Just solved it.

For some reason the tests seem to fail on Firefox. I tried on Edge and they all passed.
