I'd like you to change how get_root works. I still want to ask for a path but if the path is relative, change it into

Does anyone know what I am doing wrong?

builder.py 
import pathlib


def get_root():
    root = pathlib.PurePath(
        input("What's the full path where you'd like the project? ")
    )
    if not root.is_absolute():
        root = os.path.abspath(str(root))
    return root
