Flappy bird problem

When trying to make the red circle in the flappy bird game game for the Java script practice I can’t because “ TypeError: null is not an object (evaluating 'canvas.getContext') at Line: 5”

Copy the code into a script on sololearn playground and share the script Without seeing the code, we can't determine what is wrong

You'll get the hang of it, no problem. The red circle is not in your code. Even the count is not displayed yet. you'll get there.

you can recreate it by copy pasting the parts in their correct tabs. html in html, css in css, javascript in javascript.

Looking at what you posted, I think the problem is in your html. the button id for jump should be id="jump" not id= jump
