Not sure what I'm supposed to do with the Tag parameter.
Compiler tells me: swift_lint.swift:13:67: error: cannot convert value of type 'Tag.Type' to expected argument type 'Tag'
Any suggestion on how I could solve this ?
Thanks
struct Tag {
let name: String
}
struct Post {
let title: String
let author: String
let tag: Tag
}
let firstPost = Post(title: "Hello World", author: "Julien", tag: Tag)

71,830 PointsJulien, you need to pass a Tag object:
struct Post {
let title: String
let author: String
let tag: Tag
}
let tag = Tag(name: "swift")
let firstPost = Post(title: "iOSDevelopment", author: "Apple", tag: tag)
You can combine the two statements into one, but I broke it out separately here to show that first we create a tag object variable, and then pass that in to Post().
Just as where it takes a String we could create a String variable first, and then pass in the String variable.
P.S., in this case the editor apparently didn't complain about your Strings. But in some challenges it would have rejected them. But it's best to really follow the instructions.
