app = Flask(__name__)

@app.route("/")
def index():
    return "Hello Flask"


if __name__ == "__main__":

Hi Zinia! The challenge asks for your code to abide by PEP-8 style guidelines. The checker will only consider your route underneath the app variable if it's separated by 2 spaces. Like this:

from flask import Flask


app = Flask(__name__)


@app.route("/")
def index():
    return "Hello Flask"


if __name__ == "__main__":
    app.run(port=8000, host="0.0.0.0")

That small adjustment should make your code pass the challenge. Let me know if you have any questions!
