Front End Web Development Techdegree Graduate 30,970 PointsDOM manipulation Task 2 of 3. What am I doing wrong?
The challenge says to set the class 'panel' to variable. I don't see what's wrong with this code.
const contentDiv = document.getElementById("content");
let newParagraph = document.createElement('p').className.add('panel');
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>DOM Manipulation</title>
</head>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css" />
<body>
<div id="content">
</div>
<script src="app.js"></script>
</body>
</html>

Definition and Usage The className property sets or returns the class name of an element (the value of an element's class attribute).
Tip: A similar property to className is the classList property.

const contentDiv = document.getElementById("content");
let newParagraph = document.createElement('p');
newParagraph.className = "panel";
