Your code produces items numbered 1 to 10, where the video code creates 0 to 9. Otherwise, the result is identical.

The video code builds up the "html" string in the loop first and then outputs it one time, where this code is outputting each element one at a time.

Also, since you're not assigning anything to the "html" variable you can eliminate it entirely:

for (i = 1; i < 11; i++) { main.innerHTML += `<div>${i}</div>`; }
