Tell us what’s happening:

Hi there,
I’ve just stepped into backend, and in this step FreeCodeCamp is not accepting my solution — even though everything seems correct. The server is live and returning the right message. Not sure what’s wrong. Any help would be appreciated!

did you clone the given repo? your app is missing quite a few files

Ah, I didn’t clone the repo, I just created the project manually since I’m not very familiar with GitHub yet.

you will have to use that starting project

glitch can import a github repo

i think it is working,

So now, should I just edit it and submit it?

10

now you can follow the challenge instructions

I don’t know how glitch is set up, you may need to restart the server manually, or it could restart automatically after changes

Thanks alot, it worked!

now you can continue! pay attention, at one point it will ask to use a different starting project, but until then you will continue working with this one
