My Hello World Script isn't showing up

I'm having trouble displaying the helloWorld directive script to run. Can somebody show me where the flaw is?

<!doctype html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
  <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">
  <hello-world></hello-world>
  <script src="vendor/angular.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
  <script src="scripts/app.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
  <script src="scripts/hello-world.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
</body>
</html>

app.js

angular.module('todoListApp');

hello-world.js

angular.module('todoListApp').directive('helloWorld', function() {
  return
  {
    template: "This is the Hello World directives"

  };
});

Is there anything I need correct. Thanks in advance.

Hey Leonard,

It looks like youre missing the second parameter in the module function of app.js. According to the instructor is suppose to be an empty array, which represents your apps dependencies.

angular.module('todoListApp', []);
