+# Deployment Status Check
+
+## Latest Commit
+```
+24001f2a Enable demo mode for GitHub Pages deployment
+```
+
+## What to Check:
+
+### 1. Check if Workflow is Running
+Go to: https://github.com/MartinMeer/my-car-tech-tracker-front/actions
+
+Look for "Deploy to GitHub Pages" workflow:
+- ⏳ Yellow/Orange = Running
+- ✅ Green = Success
+- ❌ Red = Failed
+
+### 2. Manually Trigger Deployment
+
+If no workflow is running:
+1. Go to: https://github.com/MartinMeer/my-car-tech-tracker-front/actions/workflows/deploy-github-pages.yml
+2. Click **"Run workflow"** button (top right)
+3. Select branch: **master**
+4. Click green **"Run workflow"** button
+
+### 3. Clear Browser Cache
+
+After deployment completes:
+- Chrome/Edge: `Ctrl + Shift + R` (Windows) or `Cmd + Shift + R` (Mac)
+- Firefox: `Ctrl + F5` (Windows) or `Cmd + Shift + R` (Mac)
+
+Or open in Incognito/Private mode:
+- Chrome: `Ctrl + Shift + N`
+- Firefox: `Ctrl + Shift + P`
+
+### 4. Check These URLs:
+
+**Marketing Site:**
+https://martinmeer.github.io/my-car-tech-tracker-front/
+
+**Main App:**
+https://martinmeer.github.io/my-car-tech-tracker-front/app/
+
+### 5. Expected Behavior:
+
+✅ Marketing site loads
+✅ Click "Войти" → navigates to login page
+✅ Click "Начать бесплатно" → navigates to register page
+✅ After login/register → can access main app
+✅ Blue "Demo Mode" banner appears at top of main app
+✅ Can add cars and data is saved in browser
+
+## Common Issues:
+
+**Problem:** Buttons still don't work
+**Solution:** 
+- Hard refresh (Ctrl+Shift+R)
+- Check browser console for errors (F12)
+- Try incognito mode
+
+**Problem:** Workflow not running
+**Solution:** Manually trigger it (see step 2 above)
+
+**Problem:** Main app shows blank page
+**Solution:**
+- Check browser console (F12) for errors
+- Verify you're on: `https://martinmeer.github.io/my-car-tech-tracker-front/app/`
+- Clear cache and try again
