14,066 PointsWhy is my app.js totally blank through the workspace preview?
Following along with Chalkley, I'll preview my work through the workspace and inspect the app.js file through the chrome developer tools only to find that the app.js file is totally blank through the developer tools. The work is saved, I've opened and close the workspace a number of times now and nothing works, it is always blank, I downloaded the workspace on my localhost and the app.js file loads fine on my localhost. Something goofey is going on through the workspace.

I was able to resolve it though by downloading Chalker's project files and upload them into the workspace. It should work.
Launch Workspace -> Launch Different Workspace -> select and delete all files currently in the workspace -> upload each one and make sure they're in their respective folders (html doc should be outside css and js folders -> preview -> click add -> console should spit out console.log text
