+## Tutorial: Adding a Blurred Background to Your React App
+
+Follow this tutorial to add a blurred background to your React app using `react-blur`.
+
+1. **Import `react-blur`**:
+   In your `src/App.js` file, import the `Blur` component:
+
+   ```jsx
+   import React from 'react';
+   import Blur from 'react-blur';
+   ```
+
+2. **Add an Image**:
+   Place an image in your `public` folder (e.g., `public/background.jpg`). This will be the image used for the blurred background.
+
+3. **Create a Blurred Background**:
+   Replace the content of your `App` component with the following code:
+
+   ```jsx
+   function App() {
+     return (
+       <Blur img="/background.jpg" blurRadius={10} enableStyles>
+         <div style={{ padding: '20px', color: 'white' }}>
+           <h1>Welcome to My App</h1>
+           <p>This is a simple example of using `react-blur` to create a blurred background.</p>
+         </div>
+       </Blur>
+     );
+   }
+
+   export default App;
+   ```
+
+4. **Run Your App**:
+   Save the file and run your app using `npm start`. You should see a blurred background with text on top.
+
+5. **Customize the Blur**:
+   You can adjust the `blurRadius` prop to control the intensity of the blur. Try changing it to see the effect!

 #### Props

 - `shouldResize`: Optional. If the canvas should re-render on resize? Defaults to true.
 - `resizeInterval`: Optional. How fast the canvas should re-render on resize? Defaults to 128ms.
 
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### 1. **Image Not Loading**
+- Make sure the image path is correct and the image is placed in the `public` folder.
+- If the image is hosted externally, ensure the URL is correct and accessible.
+
+### 2. **Blur Effect Not Working**
+- Check that the `blurRadius` prop is set to a value greater than 0.
+- Ensure that the `enableStyles` prop is set to `true` if you want the default styles to be applied.
+
+### 3. **Canvas Not Resizing**
+- If the canvas does not resize correctly, make sure the `shouldResize` prop is set to `true` (default).
+- You can also adjust the `resizeInterval` prop to control how often the canvas re-renders on resize.
