@kingkk0310 can you open up the dev tools on your computer and send me a screenshot of anything that shows up in the console when you try to open the project?

to open the dev tools, right click on the page and click “Inspect” or “Inspect Element” in the context menu. Then there should be a tab in the window that pops up that says something like “Console” or “Developer Console”
