Troubleshooting During Tutorials

If you encounter issues during the tutorials:

Common Pitfalls:

• Step Output: Ensure every step returns a dictionary. Returning None or a non-dict will break the chain.
• Context Keys: Be careful with key naming to avoid overwriting data from previous steps unless intentional.
• Async Mismatch: Don't mix Pipeline with async steps, use PipelineAsync instead.

Next Steps

After completing these tutorials:

• Explore the User Guide for in-depth technical deep dives.

• Check the API Technical Specification for the complete specification.

• Review Best Practices for Industrial Pipelines to write idiomatic and clean code.
