## 🐛 Troubleshooting

### Common Issues

**WebSocket won't connect**
- Check backend CORS settings
- Verify WebSocket URL in .env
- Check browser console for errors

**API calls failing**
- Ensure backend is running
- Check proxy in vite.config.ts
- Verify API_URL in .env

**Build errors**
- Delete node_modules and reinstall
- Clear npm cache: `npm cache clean --force`
- Check Node.js version
