<h2>Step 1: Isolate the bug on your end</h2>

<p>
  More often than not, the problem is with your code, not with FullCalendar. To determine this,
  remove as much of your code as possible:
</p>

<ul>
  <li>Remove all unrelated stylesheets and JS files</li>
  <li>Remove all unrelated 3rd party libraries</li>
  <li>Remove all server-side logic. Use static HTML and JSON files instead.</li>
</ul>

<p>

  <a href='https://css-tricks.com/reduced-test-cases/'>Reduced Test Cases</a>.
</p>

<h2>Step 2: Post a public demonstration of the bug</h2>

<p>
  Use a service like <a href='https://codepen.io/'>CodePen</a> or
  <a href='https://jsfiddle.net/'>JSFiddle</a> to demonstrate the bug online. Enter your JS, CSS,
  HTML, and JSON and wire up all the relevant dependencies. To help you get started, here are some
  <strong>debugging templates for FullCalendar v5:</strong>
