am not able to check what am i doing incorrect. can someone help

You have a small syntax error. When you want to add a class to an element you need to do this:

<h2 class='classes-you-want-to-add'>Heading text</h2>

If you look at your code there is an extra > that you don’t need.

you also will need to remove this line:

<h2>CatPhotoApp</h2>

Hope this helps :slight_smile:
