Describe your issue in detail here.
I googled examples to help me reach the answer. Although none of it has been helpful. Can I get a link shared to a helpful source to solve the code?

  **Your code so far**

hello, welcome to the forum.

We are the ‘google’ you need :smiley: (well in many cases anyway)

In this exercise you are asked to:
remove[…] the gradientDirection argument from both linear-gradient functions

And at the start you are shown 2 lines of code both containing calls to the linear-gradient function.

So what does it mean to remove the “gradientDirection”

There is exactly one direction in each line. Can you figure it out from this hint?

3

This is the syntax for linear-gradient:

...: linear-gradient(gradientDirection, color1, color2);

This should help you understand what to do (give the challenge a read and refer back).

4

I know the linear gradient is the indicator of the direction but gradient direction im not sure

5

well even if you are unsure, just using common-sense,
in the 2 lines given to you, there are only 2 things that could possibly be considered a direction? Wouldn’t you agree?

6

o ok I figured it out thank you for the help!
