The CSS is not being used because of two syntax/spelling errors in carbonara.html:

    <link rel"stylesheet" href="syles.css" />
  1. there should be an equal sign after the keyword "rel"
  2. the name of the CSS file should be "styles.css" (with a "t")

The CSS file also has a syntax error:

  background-color:: black;
  • there should only be one colon between the property and the value
