Composition has always been my favourite pattern in React. For years, I pushed for it on every team I worked with. And for years, I got pushback.

Errors and warnings are a minefield for developers, and very inconsistently implemented across APIsAPI A set of rules and protocols that allows different software applications to communicate with each other. APIs define the methods and data formats that applications can use to request and exchange information.. I've been thinking about what a consistent, developer-friendly approach to surfacing issues looks like, one that helps both developers and their end users.
