Build a Reusable Profile Card Component - Step 1

JavaScript
1

Tell us what’s happening:

The instruction tells us to return (“”), which is a string wrapped in parentheses — not JSX.

However, in a React component, return (“”) is interpreted as a plain string, not valid JSX. In most JSX contexts, returning a plain string without wrapping it in a React element or fragment is not a meaningful return value for a component.

Despite following the instruction exactly:

export function Card({ name, title, bio }) {
return (“”);
}

Can someone drop me a hint? So that I could fix the error.

you may need to remove the semicolon

you are correct that it is not valid JSX, that will come in the next step
