## 🐛 Debugging
|
||||
|
||||
### Enable Verbose Logging
|
||||
|
||||
The server logs all important events:
|
||||
- Client connections/disconnections
|
||||
- Data requests
|
||||
- API calls
|
||||
- Errors
|
||||
|
||||
Check console output for troubleshooting
|
||||
|
||||
### Common Issues
|
||||
|
||||
**Port Already in Use**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Mac/Linux
|
||||
lsof -i :5000
|
||||
|
||||
# Windows
|
||||
netstat -ano | findstr :5000
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**CORS Errors**
|
||||
- Check CORS_ORIGIN in .env matches frontend URL
|
||||
- Verify frontend is running on http://localhost:3000
|
||||
|
||||
**API Not Responding**
|
||||
- Check internet connection
|
||||
- CoinGecko API may be rate-limited
|
||||
- Server will auto-retry
|
||||
|
||||
## 📈 Performance
|
||||
|
||||
- Lightweight and fast
|
||||
- Handles multiple concurrent connections
|
||||
- Efficient data updates (5-second intervals)
|
||||
- Minimal bandwidth usage
|
||||
|
||||
