Give the header element a class attribute. Then, set the class value to main-header.

index.html 
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head> 
  <meta charset="UTF-8">
  <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
  <title>Developer Diane: Resume</title>
  <link rel="stylesheet" href="page.css">
  <link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css">
</head>
<body>
  <main>
    <header>
      <div>
           class="main-header">main-header</div>
        <h1>Developer Diane: Resume</h1>
        <address>
          <p>website: developerdiane.com</p>

Hi Grama!

For task 1, your header should look like this:

    <header class="main-header"> <!-- THIS IS WHERE YOUR CLASS SHOULD BE DECLARED -->
      <div>
        <h1>Developer Diane: Resume</h1>
        <address>
          <p>website: developerdiane.com</p>
          <p>email: diane@developerdiane.com</p>
        </address>
        <img src="developer-diane.jpg" alt="Developer Diane coding on her laptop.">
      </div>
    </header>

I hope that helps.

Stay safe and happy coding!
