152+
153+
## 🆘 Troubleshooting
154+
155+
### Deployment Failed?
156+
157+
**Check build logs:**
158+
1. Go to Actions: https://github.com/christophernemala/tutorialkit/actions
159+
2. Click the failed workflow
160+
3. Check error messages
161+
162+
**Common issues:**
163+
- Out of memory → Already configured with 4GB
164+
- Build timeout → Normal for first build
165+
- Missing dependencies → Run `pnpm install` locally first
166+
167+
### GitHub Pages Not Enabled?
168+
169+
**Enable it manually:**
170+
1. Go to Settings → Pages
171+
2. Source: Deploy from a branch
172+
3. Branch: Select the deployment branch
173+
4. Save
174+
175+
### WebContainer Not Working?
176+
177+
**Check headers:**
178+
```bash
179+
curl -I https://christophernemala.github.io/tutorialkit/
180+
```
181+
182+
Should show:
183+
```
184+
cross-origin-embedder-policy: require-corp
185+
cross-origin-opener-policy: same-origin
186+
```
187+
188+
**Note:** GitHub Pages may not support custom headers. If WebContainer doesn't work, use Vercel instead:
189+
190+
