About This Episode:

🚨 Errors happen—but how you handle them makes all the difference!

In this episode of TekCasts, we dive into Error Handling in the UI so your apps don’t just crash and burn 💥 but instead fail gracefully ✨.

Here’s what we’ll cover:
⚡ try…catch…finally – the building blocks of error handling
⏳ Async errors with async/await (and why you should never just throw inside a promise)
🛡️ Graceful degradation – fallback messages & backup UI
👩‍💻 Turning scary red stack traces into friendly user messages (“Could not load data, please try again.”)
🌐 Real-world demo: handling fetch failures in the browser

By the end, you’ll know how to keep users confident and your app resilient—even when things go wrong. 🚀
