I have typed in everything that the teacher did in the video but it is not injecting my custom directive. Please help!

Here is my code: HTML <!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <meta charset="utf-8"> <title></title> <link href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Varela+Round" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"> <link href="styles/main.css"rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"> </head> <body ng-app="todoListApp"> <div hello-world></div>

<script src="vendor/angular.js"></script> <script src="scripts/app.js"></script> <script src="scripts/hello-world.js"></script>

</body> </html>

App.js

var app = angular.module('todoListApp', []);

hello-world.js

var app = angular.module('todoListApp'); app.directive('helloWorld', function(){ return { template: "This is my hello world directive!" }; });
