+# Possible Troubles with the dev enviroment
+(this doesn't have to be done under normal conditions, this is for future reference)
+
+### direnv
+If you have any trouble with `direnv allow`
+Check that the contents of `.envrc` have the same version of nix-direnv that is specified here:
+> nix-direnv under -> installation -> using direnv source url
+> https://github.com/nix-community/nix-direnv#direnv-source_url
+
+there should be no errors during `direnv allow`
+
+### outdated nix packages
+if `install-deps` or any subsequent command doesn't run due to versioning problems
+`flake.nix` and `flake.lock` may be outdated
+
+delete `flake.lock`, or better, run `nix flake update --extra-experimental-features flakes --extra-experimental-features nix-command`
+after that, run `direnv rebuild`
+
+if there are any errors, you might have to change `flake.nix`
+(because the available options can change between versions - consider getting support in [the matrix channel](https://matrix.to/#/#calckey:matrix.fedibird.com))
+
+### after changing a node version
+in my case, i had to change the node version from 19, to 18
+
+! before proceeding, make sure to delete all build artifacts! 
+remove `node_modules` and `built` folders, and maybe `.devenv` and `.direnv` as well
+manually, or run `npm cache clean --force` and `pnpm cleanall`
+
+### Windows Subsystem for Linux
+if `devenv up` terminates because of wrong folder permissions, 
+
+create the file `/etc/wsl.conf` in your distro and add
+```shell
+[automount]
+options = "metadata"
+```
+
+this allows `chmod` calls to actually have an effect.
+the build scripts DO actually set the permissions, it just needs to work in wsl.
+
+### devenv up
+devenv up may take a looong time. (some say this is fake news, maybe it was bad luck in my case)
+
+do not get spooked by this error:
+```
+> calckey@14.0.0-dev32 start /mnt/.../calckey
+> pnpm --filter backend run start
+
+
+> backend@ start /mnt/.../calckey/packages/backend
+> pnpm node ./built/index.js
+
+node:internal/modules/cjs/loader:1078
+  throw err;
+  ^
+
+Error: Cannot find module '/mnt/.../calckey/packages/backend/built/index.js'

+```
+
+the script is designed to constantly try to start the server, while the build is still running.
+this just means that the build isn't finished yet.
+
+at some point you should see a banner that says "Calckey" in big letters -
+then you're good to go and can run `migrate` (in another terminal)!
+
+if you don't see the banner, 
+and it's for some reason stuck on `Finished 'build' after 917 ms` for a view minutes,
+
+just leave devenv running and open another terminal in the folder 
+run `migrate` and then `pnpm --filter backend run start` by yourself
+the server should start
