Bummer! Did you use === to compare the answer with the string 'JavaScript' like this: answer==='JavaScript

app.js
var answer = prompt('What is the best programming language?');

if ( answer === "Javascript" ) {
  alert('You are correct');
}

Javascript is case sensitive and so is the challenge check. If you add a capital S to the whole formula, it will pass.

var answer = prompt('What is the best programming language?');

if ( answer === "JavaScript" ) {
  alert('You are correct');
}
