No "meta" attribute?

So I tried putting the Meta subclass underneath the Challenge class and I keep on getting an error saying that there is no 'meta' attribute for 'Challenge'. I checked the video to see if there was a mistake in syntax but there was nothing of the sort so now I'm confused.

tables.py 
from peewee import *

db = SqliteDatabase("challenges.db")

class Challenge:
    name = CharField(max_length=100)
    language = CharField(max_length=100)

    class Meta:
        database = db

Perhaps your Challenge class should be of a certain type... maybe inheriting some sort of model from another class...
