What's wrong with my code?

Why isn't it working?

index.php
<?php
require 'Slim.php';

$app = new \Slim\Slim( array(
    'view' => new \Slim\Views\Twig()
));

/*  add your code below this line */
$app->get('/hello', function() use($app) {
    $app->render('index.php');

});

/* add your code above this line */

$app->run();

Hi Ellen, your code looks pretty much fine, except you are adding more than what the challenge asked of you. Challenges here on Treehouse are very specific and picky. If you add more than what what asked or delete any of the pre-loaded code, it will not pass you.

This part of the challenge just wants you to add the 'get' route for /hello and nothing more.

So the complete code (including what was pre-loaded) should look like this only:

<?php
require 'Slim.php';

$app = new \Slim\Slim();

/*  add your code below this line */

$app->get('/hello', function() use($app) {
});

/* add your code above this line */

$app->run();

Keep Coding! :)

Hah! Thanks for explaining that. I'll be reading the instructions more carefully in the future :)
