Hi Trevino,

Co what is it you're struggling with in particular?

The challenge is split to 2 tasks. You need to add an angular directive to the HTML where you have your Edit button.

Secondly you need to Toggle the editing variable between false and true when the editing button is clicked. inside the click directive.

By the way i see that you added the challenge code to the post automatically but here's a great post that goes into how to add code to your posts yourself using markdown. :) Toggle the editing variable between false and true when the editing button is clicked.
