# Elysia

> Official documentation: https://elysia.dev/introduction

## Overview

This skill provides comprehensive documentation for elysia.

**Total references:** 1 files (~131 tokens)

## Reference Files

Load only the reference files relevant to the user's question:

- **[Web server is downError code 521](references/general.md)** (~131 tokens)
  - Topics: What happened, What can I do

## Usage Guidelines

1. **Identify relevant sections** - Match the user's question to the appropriate reference file(s)
2. **Load minimally** - Only read files directly relevant to the question to conserve context
3. **Cite sources** - Reference specific sections when answering
4. **Combine knowledge** - For complex questions, you may need multiple reference files

### When to use each reference:

- **General**: General documentation, overview, and getting started

Overview

This skill provides concise, practical documentation and usage guidance for Elysia, a minimal and fast Python web framework. It explains common issues, core concepts, and troubleshooting steps so developers can get a service running or diagnose problems quickly.

How this skill works

The skill inspects documentation sections related to general setup, error handling, and common runtime problems. It extracts actionable steps and explanations from the source material and presents them as clear troubleshooting guidance and usage recommendations. When applicable, it maps errors to likely causes and next steps to restore service.

When to use it

  • You need a quick summary of Elysia’s core purpose and how to get started.
  • You encounter common runtime errors and want targeted troubleshooting steps.
  • You want concise, actionable guidance for diagnosing why a server is down.
  • You need to convert short documentation excerpts into practical developer instructions.

Best practices

  • Check the general documentation first to confirm configuration and environment prerequisites.
  • Reproduce errors locally with minimal code to isolate framework issues from environment problems.
  • Collect and log HTTP status codes and detailed error messages before changing configuration.
  • Apply one change at a time and verify the server status to identify the fix that resolved the issue.
  • Keep dependency and runtime versions consistent between development, staging, and production.

Example use cases

  • A developer notices a 521 or similar server-down response and needs steps to identify whether it’s the framework, host, or network.
  • A team onboarding to Elysia wants a compact briefing on what the framework does and how to approach debugging.
  • A sysadmin troubleshooting a failing deployment needs a checklist of verification steps (logs, configs, dependencies).
  • A developer creating a minimal reproducible example to share when filing an issue with the project.

FAQ

What does a 521 error mean for an Elysia app?

A 521-style server-down error usually indicates the server process is not responding or a network/hosting layer is blocking requests; confirm the app process is running, inspect logs, and verify host/network settings.

Where should I start when the Elysia server won’t start?

Start with server logs for error traces, verify Python/runtime and dependency versions, run a minimal app locally, and check hosting or container configuration.
