You may be familiar with the `meta` element already; it is used to specify information about the page, such as the title, description, keywords, and author.

Give your page a `meta` element with an appropriate `charset` value.
2021-09-28 21:38:44 +01:00
The `charset` attribute specifies the character encoding of the page, and, nowadays, `UTF-8` is the only encoding supported by most browsers.
# --hints--
You should create a `meta` element within the `head` element.
```js
2022-01-24 19:02:25 +01:00
assert.exists(document.querySelector('head > meta'));
2021-09-28 21:38:44 +01:00
```
You should give the `meta` tag a `charset` of `UTF-8` .
```js
2022-01-24 19:02:25 +01:00
assert.equal(document.querySelector('head > meta')?.getAttribute('charset'), 'UTF-8');

```
