To debug the issue of unused JavaScript libraries on your Webflow home page after replacing embedded YouTube videos with an iframe, you can follow these steps:

Inspect the page source: Open up the developer tools of your web browser (usually done by right-clicking on the page and selecting "Inspect" or by pressing F12). Go to the "Sources" or "Elements" tab and search for any references to the unused JavaScript libraries that you suspect are still being loaded.
Check the Webflow project settings: Within your Webflow project, navigate to the Project Settings panel. Go to the "Custom Code" tab and look for any JavaScript code that could be loading those libraries. Remove or modify the code accordingly to prevent unnecessary loading.
Review the YouTube embed code: If you are using an iframe to embed YouTube videos, make sure that the code you are using doesn't contain any JavaScript references to libraries that you no longer need. Inspect the YouTube embed code and remove any unnecessary JavaScript references.
Test the page: Save your changes and refresh the page to see if the unused JavaScript libraries are still being loaded. Use the developer tools to check if the libraries are now absent from the network requests or if any JavaScript errors are being thrown.
Minimize unnecessary JavaScript: It's also a good practice to perform a general code review of your web page and ensure that you're only loading the essential JavaScript libraries. Removing any unused code can improve your site's performance and optimize load times.
Publish the changes: After making the necessary modifications, remember to publish your changes to your live Webflow site. It's a good idea to also clear your browser cache before testing if the issue has been resolved.

By following these steps, you should be able to debug the issue of unused JavaScript libraries on your Webflow home page after replacing embedded YouTube videos with an iframe.
