REACT ROUTER ERROR REPORTING FROM SCRATCH
Summary from the TLDR Web Dev newsletter
This article goes over how to implement custom error reporting in React Router, moving beyond the default development error messages. Devs first need to enable source maps in production to map bundled code back to the original source. Then, a custom `handleError` function needs to be created that reads source maps and extracts relevant source code context to send detailed error reports via email. The article also provides code examples for setting up a custom server, reading source maps, and formatting error reports, along with tips for environments lacking filesystem access.
