Map State to Props (using arrow function)

JavaScript
1

Tell us what’s happening:
Tried writing this in arrow function, but it doesn’t work. Not sure why…

Your code so far


const state = [];

// change code below this line
/*function mapStateToProps(state) {
  return {
    messages: state
  }
}
*/
var mapStateToProps = (state) => {messages: state};

you forgot the brackets

var mapStateToProps = (state) => ({messages: state});

(the brackets are necessary when you are writing short-hand functions)
