I'm getting a bit confused on this last question. I think I'm having a hard time actually gasp'ing what it's asking me to do.
const contentDiv = document.getElementById("content");
let newParagraph = document.createElement('p');
newParagraph.className = 'panel'
newParagraph.appendChild('div');
<!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>

Close brah. Just check the order of how to appendChild works, first you list the parent (by variable name), and then in parentheses put the child to slap onto it.

12,098 PointsOmg, thanks so much. I tried "Div.appendChild(newParagraph);" before as my first answer, but it didn't work. I forgot about "contentDiv" instead.
