🐛 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
