Code challenge: Update this view's link_to to use the newly created named :feed route.

Greetings everyone - I let the above question (& my answer) sit overnight and I can't seem to come up with the correct code.

My answer below follows along exactly how it was developed in the video.

<ul class="nav">
  <li><%= link_to "News Feed", 'feed_path' %></li>
</ul>

Your input is greatly appreciated!

feed_path doesn't need to be a string.
<li><%= link_to "News Feed", feed_path %></li>
