The file path comment is incorrect - the file is in src/utils/ not src/components/, which suggests confusion about the actual file location.

Analysis
Incorrect file path comment in ConfettiUtils.tsx
What fails: File comment in src/utils/ConfettiUtils.tsx incorrectly states // src/components/ConfettiUtils.tsx, causing confusion about file location and contributing to incorrect import path in tutorialCompletion.tsx
How to reproduce: Check line 1 of src/utils/ConfettiUtils.tsx - comment shows wrong directory
Result: Comment shows // src/components/ConfettiUtils.tsx but file is actually in src/utils/ directory
Expected: Comment should accurately reflect actual file path as // src/utils/ConfettiUtils.tsx (consistent with other files in codebase that have correct path comments)
Additional context: This incorrect comment contributed to the wrong import path './ConfettiUtils' in tutorialCompletion.tsx which was importing from non-existent relative path

The import path for ConfettiUtils is incorrect - it's in the utils directory, not the components directory, which will cause a module resolution error at runtime.

Analysis
Incorrect import path causes module resolution error in TutorialCompletion component
What fails: TutorialCompletion component imports triggerConfetti from './ConfettiUtils' but ConfettiUtils.tsx is located in src/utils/, not src/components/
How to reproduce:
npm run buildResult: Build fails with error: Module not found: Error: Can't resolve './ConfettiUtils' in '/vercel/sandbox/sandpits/kind-crow/src/components'
Expected: Import should resolve correctly to src/utils/ConfettiUtils.tsx using relative path '../utils/ConfettiUtils'

Incomplete troubleshooting bullet point in GitHub documentation
What fails: Line 114 in docs/GitHub/intro-github.md contains incomplete guidance: "Confirm you're pushing to the right repo:" with no actionable instructions
How to reproduce:
- Open docs/GitHub/intro-github.md
- Navigate to line 114 in the "Cannot Push to Repository" troubleshooting section
- Observe the bullet point ends with a colon but provides no command or guidance
Result: Users are left without actionable steps to verify their repository configuration
Expected: Bullet points in troubleshooting sections should provide complete, actionable guidance per the established pattern in the same document
Fix: Added the standard GitHub-recommended command: "Check your remote URL with git remote -v and ensure it matches the correct repository" as documented in GitHub's official remote management guide

Two shell commands are incorrectly combined on a single line without proper separation. A beginner following this tutorial will get an error when trying to execute this command.

Analysis
Shell commands incorrectly combined without separator in Node.js setup tutorial
What fails: Line 74 in docs/NodeJS-Setup/index.md contains mkdir my-first-node-project cd my-first-node-project which combines two shell commands without proper separation
How to reproduce:
mkdir my-first-node-project cd my-first-node-projectResult: Creates directories named "my-first-node-project" and "cd" instead of creating directory and changing into it. Shell interprets cd as an argument to mkdir
Expected: Should create directory and then change into it. Fixed by adding && operator: mkdir my-first-node-project && cd my-first-node-project
