<style>
  .pink-text{
    color: pink;
  }
  body {
    background-color: black;
    font-family: monospace;
    color: green;
  }
</style>
<h1 class="pink-text">Hello World!</h1>

you have a syntax error, you have declared your pink-style inside your body-style curly brackets. don’t declare the .pink-style inside the body style definition. it wont work.

You have your .pink-text inside of your body element.

It should go like this

body {
  /* css */
}
.pink-text{
  /* css */
}

pink text is inside of your body element in html, but in CSS they are two separate items.

Thank you. I didn’t notice that the pink color was inside the body element.
