Essential news, trends, and stories from Codecademy and the world of code.
SyntaxError: Wow. You thought that would work? Are you sure this whole coding thing is for you?
Before even reading the text of an error message, it's easy to feel discouraged. They're usually red (scary!), they're usually unexpected (frustrating!), and they never look like the output you were hoping to see.
But errors are a sign that you're trying to build something great. And while the messages themselves can be demoralizing, learning to embrace them will make you a much better coder.
That's why we wrote a step-by-step guide to reading, interpreting, and learning from every error message you encounter on your coding journey. As you'll see, red is a beautiful color.
