ERRORS, ERRORS EVERYWHERE: HOW WE CENTRALIZED AND STRUCTURED ERROR HANDLING

A Go project addressed escalating error-handling issues stemming from a growing codebase and inconsistent developer practices.

To solve this, a structured, centralized error framework was implemented using namespace codes, which included tools for mapping, wrapping, and testing errors.
