Bug Report Template: Marivel-Moncayo Farcaster Clone

Hey guys! We need to squash those bugs in the Marivel-Moncayo Farcaster clone, and to do that effectively, we need clear and concise bug reports. This template will help us get all the info we need to fix things fast. Let's get started!

Describe the Bug

Okay, so what's the issue? Give us all the juicy details. Imagine you're explaining it to a friend who knows nothing about the project. The clearer you are, the faster we can pinpoint the problem. Let's dive deep into understanding the nature of the bug!

  • What exactly is happening that shouldn't be?
  • What isn't happening that should be?
  • Is there an error message? What does it say?
  • When did you first notice this bug?
  • Has it happened before? If so, how often?

We need to really understand the impact, guys. Is it a minor visual glitch, or is it breaking core functionality? Let's get specific!

File Location

This is super important! Tell us exactly where to find the problematic code. The more specific you are, the less time we spend hunting around. Think of it like giving someone directions to a specific spot in a huge city – you wouldn't just say "downtown," right? You'd give an address or cross-streets.

  • What's the full path to the file?
  • If it's a specific function or component, tell us which one.
  • If you know the specific lines of code, even better! Mention those lines so we can focus our attention in the exact location of the issue.

Providing the file location helps us tremendously in diagnosing the bug efficiently and effectively.

Steps to Reproduce

This is where you become a bug-reproducing magician! We need a step-by-step guide on how to make the bug happen again. Think of it like a recipe – if you leave out an ingredient or step, the cake won't turn out right. The more precise you are, the easier it is for us to reproduce the bug and fix it.

  1. Start with the first action, and write it down.
  2. What do you click on? What do you type?
  3. What pages do you visit?
  4. Be specific!
  5. Don't leave out any details, even if they seem minor. Those little things can sometimes be the key!

For example:

  1. Go to the user profile page.
  2. Click on the "Edit Profile" button.
  3. Clear the current text in the "Bio" field.
  4. Type more than 250 characters into the "Bio" field.
  5. Click the "Save" button.
  6. Observe the error message.

Being super detailed here means we can reliably recreate the problem, which is a huge step toward fixing it, guys!

Expected Behavior

What should have happened? This helps us understand what you were expecting and confirms that we're on the same page. Don't assume we know what the correct behavior is – spell it out clearly. This is all about clarity and preventing misunderstandings.

  • Instead of saying "It should work," tell us how it should work.
  • What should the user see?
  • What should the system do?
  • What data should be saved or updated?

For example, instead of "The bio should save," you might say, "The bio should save and display the updated text without errors, and the character counter should prevent users from entering more than 250 characters."

Clearly defining the expected behavior makes it much easier to verify that the fix is working correctly.

Possible Solution

Got any ideas on how to fix it? This is totally optional, but if you have a hunch, share it! Even if your suggestion isn't the exact solution, it can point us in the right direction. Maybe you've seen something similar before, or you have a deep understanding of the code in that area.

  • This could be a code snippet, a change in logic, or even a suggestion to use a different library or approach.
  • Don't worry if you're not 100% sure – even a rough idea can be helpful.
  • If you've already tried debugging it yourself, tell us what you tried and what the results were.

Your insights here could save us time and lead to a faster resolution. It is very helpful for us if you can provide a potential solution, if applicable.

Screenshots

A picture is worth a thousand words, right? If you can show us the bug, it's often way easier to understand than just reading about it. Screenshots (or even screen recordings) can be incredibly helpful, especially for visual issues or error messages.

  • Take a screenshot of the error message.
  • Capture the visual glitch you're seeing.
  • Highlight the area of the screen that's causing the problem.
  • If it's a complex issue, a short screen recording showing the steps to reproduce can be gold!

Make sure the screenshots are clear and focused on the problem area. Annotations (arrows, circles, text) can be useful to draw attention to specific details. Let's leverage the power of visuals, guys!

Desktop Information

We need to know your setup! Bugs can sometimes be specific to certain operating systems, browsers, or versions. Providing this information helps us narrow down the possibilities. This is the nitty-gritty details that can make a HUGE difference.

  • OS: Which operating system are you using? (e.g., Windows 10, macOS Monterey, Ubuntu 20.04)
  • Browser: Which browser are you using? (e.g., Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge)
  • Version: What's the version number of your browser? (You can usually find this in the browser's "About" menu)

Don't forget to include the version number, guys! It's more important than you think. For example:

  • OS: macOS Monterey 12.3.1
  • Browser: Chrome
  • Version: 99.0.4844.84

Additional Context

Anything else we should know? This is your chance to add any other details that might be relevant. Maybe you noticed the bug after a specific update, or it only happens under certain conditions. The more context you provide, the better equipped we are to tackle the issue.

  • Did you recently update anything?
  • Does the bug only happen when you're logged in as a specific user?
  • Does it only happen on a specific page or section of the site?
  • Is there anything unusual about your setup or configuration?

Consider this the "catch-all" section – if it doesn't fit anywhere else, put it here! It is really important that we try to be as detailed as possible, guys.

By using this template, we can all work together to make the Marivel-Moncayo Farcaster clone rock-solid! Thanks for your help in making this project the best it can be. Let's crush those bugs!
