[FEATURE]: Add Troubleshooting Guide and FAQ to Documentation #274

Description

@Dippp10-ally

Short description

The project documentation currently lacks a dedicated Troubleshooting and Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) section. New users may encounter common setup or runtime issues without clear guidance, leading to repeated questions and a slower onboarding experience.

Describe the improvements you would like to make

Add a dedicated Troubleshooting section to the README or documentation.
Document common installation, configuration, and runtime issues.
Add clear symptoms, possible causes, and solutions for each issue.
Create a dedicated FAQ section for frequently asked questions from new users.
Include relevant commands, configuration examples, and expected outputs where helpful.
Add links between the README, Troubleshooting Guide, and FAQ for easier navigation.
Keep the documentation beginner-friendly and update it when new recurring issues are identified.

Why is this needed?

  • Improves developer onboarding
  • Reduces repeated support requests
  • Makes common issues easier to resolve
  • Enhances the overall documentation quality

How would you implement this?

Add a new section to the README (or a separate TROUBLESHOOTING.md/FAQ.md) covering:

  • Common installation and setup errors
  • Frequently encountered runtime issues
  • Environment variable configuration problems
  • Dependency and version compatibility
  • Build and deployment issues
  • Frequently asked questions with concise answers
  • Links to relevant documentation and resources

N.A.

How to reproduce

Open the project's current README/documentation.
Follow the installation and setup instructions as a new user.
Encounter a common setup, configuration, or runtime issue.
Search the existing documentation for guidance.
Observe that there is no dedicated Troubleshooting or FAQ section covering the issue.
Users must rely on GitHub issues or external searches to find solutions.
Expected Result
