Thank you for inviting me over! 🙏

We went through all the details of #ErrorKit and discussed questions like when, why and how to do error handling in your apps!

Watch it on YouTube! 👇

In yesterday's livestream, I had the opportunity to chat with @jeehut.bsky.social, creator of TranslateKit and organizer of WWDC Notes.

We talked about his open source library ErrorKit, and how it can help you create better error messages for your Swift apps.

Just shipped 1.2.0 of #ErrorKit:

Adding it to your project now automatically improves error messages in string interpolation — no code changes needed! Plus new \(chain: error) for debugging with context.

Huge thanks to @finestructure.co for the brilliant idea! 🙏

If you care about better error messages, this is for you. @jeehut.bsky.social implemented ErrorKit, a framework that maps system errors to clearer, more helpful descriptions, and now you can contribute to it.

Imagine showing your user: "The operation couldn't be completed. (NSURLErrorDomain error -1011.)" 🤔

Been there! That's why I created ErrorKit to map these into English. But Apple has THOUSANDS of these cryptic codes. Time for a community solution: 🙌

Been only 2 weeks I released #ErrorKit & it already has ~250 🌟 on GitHub, being my 3rd most popular open-source framework already! 😱🎉

Just released v1.1.0 of the lib with some nice improvements. Thanks to James Sherlock & @jubishop.bsky.social for their contributions! 👏

In #Swift, it's easy to get error messages wrong. It's due to a design flaw in the "Error" protocol introduced for #ObjC compatibility. I've seen people write below code all the time. I fixed it in #ErrorKit: Conform your errors to "Throwable" instead! 💯

ErrorKit introduces the concept of Error Chain Debugging and it sounds like a fantastic idea that really needs to be explored further.

@jeehut.bsky.social has released ErrorKit and it fixes another problem: Because the Error protocol is backwards compatible to NSError, it is cumbersome to use correctly. This new library needs more attention. See his write up about it here:

Introducing a new open-source #Swift package that I've been working on for 8 months! Say hello 👋 to #ErrorKit – a set of APIs that simplify #ErrorHandling in Swift 6. Built to be actually helpful. And boy have I documented it! 💯
