## Troubleshooting

- **System Requirements**
  Before generating a project, make sure your system meets the necessary requirements for both the project setup tool and the specific technologies involved.

- **Figlet or Boxen Not Displaying Correctly:**  
  Ensure your terminal supports the required Unicode characters and colors.

- **Permission Issues on Windows:**  
  If you encounter permission issues, run your terminal as an Administrator or adjust your system's PATH variable after running `npm link`.

- **Project Creation Errors:**  
  Make sure you’re providing the correct arguments. For example, use `-p web -l beginner -f react -b express` to set up a React-Express project.
