Tell us what’s happening:

Does anyone know what I am missing? It says You should add join("") to the existing code

Thanks

Hi @iskren500

Try removing the white space between the quote marks.

Happy coding

What white space? I tried to remove the space between the quotes and doesn’t work

return songs.map(song =>`

    })
};

can you help please, which white space are you talking about

The problem lies in how the join("") is applied in your code.
In your code, you are mapping over the songs array to generate a list of HTML strings. The resulting array of strings needs to be joined into one single string to render the content properly in your application.

  • The join("") method is applied directly to the result of map. Ensure no extra spaces or incorrect characters are added between elements unless specifically required.
  • Use "" to avoid adding any separator between the mapped elements.

I still don’t get it

7

where did this line came from? it doesn’t match the seed code

8

trying adding after the array

9

trying resetting then doing it again, considering that the code you showed doesn’t match the seed code
