Can someone ask me why this code is wrong?

app.js 
const inputValue = document.querySelector('input');
index.html 
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
    <head>
      <title>DOM Manipulation</title>
    </head>
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css" />
    <body>
      <div id="content">
        <label for="linkText">Link Text:</label>
        <input type="text" id="linkText" value="sample text">
        <p class="info"></p>
      </div>
    <script src="app.js"></script>
  </body>
</html>

Oh i forgot the Question for this Task, here you go: Select the <input> element and assign its value to the variable inputValue.
