Environment Variables Required

Create a .env.local file in your project root:

GROQ_API_KEY=your_groq_api_key_here

Get your API key from Groq Console.

🐛 Common Errors & Solutions

1. "GROQ_API_KEY environment variable is missing or empty"

Symptoms: App works locally but fails on Vercel with API key error Cause: Environment variables not set in Vercel deployment Solution:

• Go to Vercel project dashboard → Settings → Environment Variables
• Add GROQ_API_KEY with your actual API key
• Redeploy the project

2. "Module not found" or dependency errors

Symptoms: Build fails with missing packages Cause: Dependencies not installed or lockfile conflicts Solution:

rm -rf node_modules package-lock.json
npm install

3. "TypeScript errors" or ".tsx vs .ts" issues

Symptoms: Compilation errors about file extensions Cause: Next.js requires .tsx for files with JSX Solution: Rename files from .ts to .tsx if they contain React components

4. "Tailwind CSS not working"

Symptoms: Styles not applied, classes not recognized Cause: Tailwind v4 uses different import syntax Solution: Update globals.css to use @import "tailwindcss"; instead of @tailwind directives

5. "API route not found" or 404 errors

Symptoms: API calls fail in production Cause: Incorrect API route paths or serverless function issues Solution: Ensure routes are in app/api/ directory and use proper Next.js 14 structure

6. "Build timeout" on Vercel

Symptoms: Deployment fails with timeout error Cause: Large dependencies or slow builds Solution: Check build logs, optimize dependencies, or increase Vercel plan limits

7. "CORS errors" in browser

Symptoms: API requests blocked by CORS policy Cause: Missing CORS headers in API routes Solution: Add CORS headers to API responses:

return Response.json(data, {
  headers: { 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin': '*' }
});
