@omkar38, @montanio19,

  1. ‘Change the h2 selector to .red-text’ ==> means change the selector that says h2 to a selector that says .red-text.
  2. Update the color’s value from blue to red ==> means update the color ==> blue -> red
  3. Give your h2 element the class attribute with a value of ‘red-text’ ==> This means, in the HTML section, change to this: <h2 class="red-text"</h2>.

I agree that the challenge doesn’t read smoothly at first glance. It would read better if it stated, change the h2 selector to a .red-text class selector. This is ultimately what you’re being asked to do:

<style>
  .red-text {
    color: red;
  }
</style>

<h2 class="red-text">CatPhotoApp</h2>

@romeojeremiah wrong challenge…

@omkar38 do you have a dark mode extension? or something else that changes the color of web pages? that will make the tests fail. you can switch on the native dark mode in the settings
