Notes:

TypeError Screenshot

Note 1: The “Uncaught TypeError: Cannot set properties of null (setting 'textContent')” error that appears in the console is not a problem originating from ChainIDE itself, but a non-breaking minor code issue in the index.html, which is generated by ChatGPT.

Sandbox Screenshot

Note 2: The inability to open the Sandbox development environment is due to the terminal image function, which is currently unavailable as it's scheduled for deployment in Milestone 2. Once Milestone 2 is completed, this feature will become fully accessible.
