I don’t understand miss.

If you see a hint that says you need a .canvas element, ask yourself before typing:

What is an element?

Answer: it is an HTML term which refers to code tags that has a form similar to below

<body> some stuff in the middle </body>

So whatever the exercise wants, if they say they want an element, it should be written in the HTML way.

And what does “.canvas” refer to then?

The “dot” in the .canvas here is telling you that you should look at the class attribute of the same name.

Thank, your solution was helpful
