+# Troubleshooting
+
+If you experience any issues, the following things should be tried:
+
+- Try killing the eww daemon with `eww kill` and run again
+- If you're running with `-d`, run without `-d` to see output, or have a look at ~/.cache/eww.log
+- use `eww state`, to see the state of all variables
+- use `eww debug`, to see the xml of your widget and other information
+- update to the latest eww version
+- sometimes hot reloading doesn't work. restart the widget in that case
+
+If you're experiencing issues printing variables, try to print them in quotes, so e.g.
+```
+onchange="notify-send '{}'"
+```
