It’s just

var(—penguin-skin);

No color with the variable.

I’ve edited the original post to make it more readable. Specifically, I added three backticks before the code block and three backticks after.

You can post code in two ways. Single word/line snippets can be handled inline. Multiple lines should be handled in code blocks:

Inline

Wrap your code in a single back ticks:

Example:

Code Blocks

Wrap your code in triple back ticks, with new lines between the back ticks and code:

Example:

Typing Backticks:arrow_heading_up:

QWERTY and QWERTZ (Key that’s been marked with red border)

Demo courtesy of @JacksonBates

I did that and it still wouldn’t pass

reset all your code

create custom property `–penguin-skin: grey’

everywhere it says background: black, replace it with background: var(--penguin-skin)

you should see the color change on the penguin and the tests should pass

background: var(--penguin-grey, grey) will not pass

This works for me. Look to see if you did anything differently. You probably just forgot a semicolon or something
