# Fixing Asset Paths for Local Development

When working on a web project locally, you might encounter issues where images or fonts fail to load. This often happens because the asset paths in the code include a prefix specific to the production environment, such as `/cloud-scout`.

## Problem

In production, asset paths might look like this in your `.css` or `.js` files:

### Example
```css
background-image: url('/cloud-scout/assets/images/background.jpg');

```Font Family
src: url(/cloud-scout/fonts/iosevkanerdfontmono.ttf) format("truetype");

These paths work in production but fail on a local system because the /cloud-scout prefix doesn't exist in the local environment.

Solution

To fix this issue, remove the /cloud-scout prefix and use relative paths instead.

Updated Code

background-image: url('/assets/images/background.jpg');

src: url(/fonts/iosevkanerdfontmono.ttf) format("truetype");

Benefits of Using Relative Paths

1. Local Compatibility: Assets will load correctly on your local system.
2. Cross-Environment Consistency: The project will work seamlessly in both local and production environments.
3. Simpler Maintenance: Relative paths are easier to manage during development and deployment.

Implementation Steps

1. Open your .css or .js files.
2. Search for paths containing /cloud-scout (or any other production-specific prefix).
3. Replace these paths with relative paths starting from the project root or relevant directory.

Before

background-image: url('/cloud-scout/assets/images/background.jpg');

src: url(/cloud-scout/fonts/iosevkanerdfontmono.ttf) format("truetype");

After

background-image: url('/assets/images/background.jpg');

src: url(/fonts/iosevkanerdfontmono.ttf) format("truetype");

By making these adjustments, your project will be ready for local development without breaking asset loading functionality.

This is structured for a clear and professional GitHub `README.md` file and uses Markdown conventions effectively.
