--description--

Another important meta element for accessibility and SEO is the description definition. The value of the content attribute is used by search engines to provide a description of your page.

Add a meta element with the name attribute set to description, and give it a useful content attribute.

--hints--

You should add a new meta element to the head.

js
assert.equal(document.querySelectorAll('meta').length, 3);

You should give the meta a name attribute of description.

js
assert.exists(document.querySelector('meta[name="description"]'));

You should give the meta a content attribute.

js
assert.notEmpty(document.querySelector('meta[name="description"]')?.content);

The content attribute value should not be more than 165 characters. This is Google's maximum description length.

js
assert.isAtMost(document.querySelector('meta[name="description"]')?.content?.length, 165);
