Set the wrapper's width to 80% of the browser width. Then use margins to center the wrapper in the browser.

Hello Luca,

Well since I don't know what are you coding, I can't point out your mistakes, but here is the CSS to pass this challenge:

.container {
  width: 80%;
  margin-left: auto;
  margin-right: auto;
}

PLEASE REVIEW YOUR CODE AND DON'T JUST COPY/PASTE, THANK YOU :)
