Hi there! So you'll notice you've spent a good amount of time setting up what you're going to draw. You've begun the path, told it where to move, closed the path. But the context.stroke() is the method responsible for actually drawing it to the screen. Without this, nothing will be rendered.

Hope this helps! :sparkles:
