 # Tips
 
+- Whenever you face a strange issue (or an issue that causes build errors), there are two things you should always consider.
+  - Build processes are costly and complex, so caching is used a lot. As a result, certain changes that you make in your app can cause cache conflicts in subsequent builds. Deal with this via `npx react-native-clean-project`. This does solve a lot of problems.
+  - Try an isolate the problem with a template React Native Firebase app. This [bash script](https://github.com/mikehardy/rnfbdemo/blob/master/make-demo.sh) is particularly helpful in making an empty template app.
 - Advice on supporting multiple environments (for example, dev, prod, maybe also staging, qa) for your React Native Firebase App: [#3504](https://github.com/invertase/react-native-firebase/issues/3504)
 - Using [Fastlane for iOS deployment](https://docs.fastlane.tools/getting-started/ios) together with [RN Firebase Crashlytics](https://rnfirebase.io/crashlytics/usage) within CI has been observed to cause builds that hang indefinitely. Using `setup_ci(force: true)` before building the application may solve the issue.: [#3706](https://github.com/invertase/react-native-firebase/issues/3706)
