Facing problem, two selection panels are show, i am making a website which would allow people to create quick short videos and here is where i reached. i am a beginner.
I think your using the VSCode Live Server plugin. I would not use the Live Server plugin to run your app. The plugin does some magic to inject additional HTML into displayed page. Having SVG icons breaks it (not sure if you are using svg icons). I would run a basic app through a Python server by creating pyServer.py file:

Can't figure out how to use adapter-static in sveltekit
