@Aakash Narwade Hey there I am also going to submit my homework now! keep going brother!

you have to use return to make that work because you are not using the short hand notation or you can use the shorthand notation given below import { clerkMiddleware, createRouteMatcher } from "@clerk/nextjs/server"; // myapp.com/dashboard/* const isProtectedRoute = createRouteMatcher(["/dashboard(.*)"]); export default clerkMiddleware((auth, req)=>{ if (isProtectedRoute(req)) auth().protect(); });
