Class-Selector first-child challenge buggy?

I have gone to the second step before, where I refreshed the site. Now I'm putting the same code as listed below in and it tells me that I have to make the border properties to none (which I think I have done here)!

style.css 
/* Complete the challenge by writing CSS below */

.main-dev li:first-child {
  border: none;
  border-radius: 5px 0 0 5px;
}
index.html

Hi there,

It looks like you're targeting .main-dev instead of .main-nav. The class selector isn't really necessary in this case either. Simply include the pseudo-class and that will work just fine. :)

Thanks, Guil. I guess it's good noticing that I neglected something so obvious. Wasn't the first time, but I hope I'll eventually adapt from those mistakes!
