It’s all “Fuel, Air, Spark”. Start with that theory.

It’s always super easy.

Check for spark, easy enough. If no spark, replace spark plug if you don’t know how old it is, check connections to spark plug and for any kill switch, if that checks out, probably the coil.

If you have good spark, make sure air filter isn’t totally fucked. If that’s good, check to make sure you’re getting fuel to the carb and primer. If you’re getting some air, replace fuel lines and/or primer bulb. Other than that, it’s the carb, which is the issue on small engines 75% of the time from gas sitting in there. Try carb cleaner on larger engines and those you can rebuild. Otherwise with little weed eaters and chainsaws, just get a new $15-$20 carb and be done with it.
