So the in in for post in posts is not a property or method, it's just a keyword of the for/in or each/in control statement in PugJS (Jade).

If you're seeing a different color for the in keyword of the control statement, it could be that the syntax highlighting in the instructors editor is different than the syntax highlighting in your editor. This should not affect the results of your code.

For example, if I open that file in my preferred text editor (atom.io), the post in posts is all the same color, but the code works as intended. Different code editors may apply different syntax highlighting depending on your settings and plugins.

Is this the only issue you are seeing or is your code not outputting the expected results?
