2,504 PointsYou begin writing your CSS under your styles.css tab.
Don't worry, it's pretty simple. The challenge is asking you to change the color of your <h1> to purple. So in your CSS tab, write your selector which is h1. Then use the color property to change its color.
h1 { color: purple; }
Don't forget the important of beginning and ending a new rule with your opening and closing curly brackets.

h1 {
color: purple;
}
In the styles.css tab.
Here's how the CSS turns all H1s to purple:
- We select all
H1s by usingh1. - Inside of the
{}, we specify how we want to style allh1s. Whyh1s? That's because we told CSS we wanted to styleh1s in the selection. - We set the
colorproperty to the color value ofpurple. Remember to end the line with a semicolon! It's like ending a sentence with a period to CSS.
I hope this helps
Happy coding!
