fill transition

not sure how this question is supposed to be answered is it asking me to change the fill colour on hover with a ease-out or just asking me to set a different fill colour and add a transition value?

Hi Leon,

the question is basically asking you to use the shorthand transition property and give it a value of fill 1s.

So the outcome would be:-

.star-bg {
  transition: fill 1s;
}

Don't get me wrong I had to read the questions a few times before I fully got it...

Hope this helps.

Craig :)
