Two Way Data Binding AngularJS Challenge Task 1 of 2

Hi there,

I'm just starting to learn angular and the first challenge is to output Hello follow by the value stored in user.name within a paragraph tag. Thought this would work but it doesn't...

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html ng-app="myApp">
<head>
  <title>Angular.js</title>
</head>
<body>
<p ng-model="user.name">Hello {{user.name}}</p>
  <script src="js/angular.js"></script>
  <script src="app.js"></script>

</body>
</html>

var myApp = angular.module('myApp',[]);
.controller('myFirstController', function ($scope) {
  $scope.user = {
    name: "Michael"
  };
});

I just passed this but now...It makes more sense after seeing challenge task 2. Essentially this wanted me to simply link an input to a paragraph output. Fair enough I suppose you don't need any different change to the JS for that. I was imagining it pulling a predefined object value when I created the question. 

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html ng-app="myApp">
<head>
  <title>Angular.js</title>
</head>
<body>
  <p ng-model='user.name'>Hello {{user.name}}</p>
  <script src="js/angular.js"></script>
  <script src="app.js"></script>

</body>
</html>

var myApp = angular.module('myApp',[]);
