Common Pitfalls (Gotchas)

1. Version Compatibility: Pay attention to the compatibility between framework versions and dependency libraries; APIs may differ across versions.
2. Configuration File Format: Configuration file format errors are the most common issue; it is recommended to use your editor's syntax checking.
3. Environment Variables: Ensure all necessary environment variables are set correctly, and do not hard-code sensitive information.
4. Dependency Conflicts: When multiple versions coexist, watch out for dependency conflicts and use lock files to pin versions.
5. Performance Pitfalls: In large-data scenarios, pay attention to performance optimization and avoid common issues such as N+1 queries.
