Next, use the flexbox property and value that gives every list item inside main-nav evenly distributed widths.

My answer is: .main-nav li { margin-left: 8px; margin-right: 8px; -webkit-align-self: center; align-self: center; -webkit-flex-grow: 1; flex-grow: 1; transition: .5s; } .main-nav li:hover:not(.main-logo) { -webkit-flex-grow: 2; flex-grow: 2; } But telling me it's wrong.. somebody can help me?
