Bug in Track: Interactive Web Pages with JS ??

Currently working on the JS track mentioned in title. The workspace environment is already provided w/ css and html files pre-filled with content. I'm following along the video tutorial, adding the JS code as I watch.

When I preview, the new functions do not work as intended.

Looking at the provided html file, I see <script type="text/javascript" src="js/app.js"></script>

File Structure: /Interactive Web Pages with JavaScript - What is an object? |-- css | |-- style.css |-- js | |-- app.js |-- index.html

Changing to the following fixes it for me and everything works fine: <script type="text/javascript" src="./js/app.js"></script>

I don't know if this is a bug or if I'm just experiencing something weird here, but I thought I would try mentioning it here and seeing what other people are experiencing.
