Console
The console is a running text feed where your app and browser print messages, warnings, and errors about what is happening underneath.
Think of it like
The cockpit instrument panel. Most of the time you ignore it, but it tells you exactly what is going wrong.
Example
When the AI says “check the console” or “paste the logs,” it means open this feed and copy what the error says.
Why it matters
It is where the clues live. Pasting console errors back to your AI is the fastest way to get a bug fixed.
