change the "index.html" <title> tag to be: {{ super() }} Homepage.

getting an error "did't get the right <title> in the rendered template. ". how can I solve this problem

flask_app.py 
from flask import Flask
from flask import render_template

app = Flask(__name__)


@app.route('/')
def index():
    return render_template('index.html')
templates/index.html 
{% extends "layout.html" %}

{% block title %}{{ super() }} Homepage{% endblock %}
{% block content %}
  <h1>Smells Like Bakin'!</h1>
  <p>Welcome to my bakery web site!</p>
{% endblock %}
templates/layout.html 
<!doctype html>
<html>
  <head><title>{% block title %}{% endblock %}Smells Like Bakin'</title></head>
<body>
  {% block content %}{% endblock %}
</body>
</html>

I think the issue is that your title block is ending too soon (it should be wrapped around the original Smells Like Bakin' title).
