fr i used to copy-paste the same error handling pattern into every single express controller i wrote. it started with one function and quickly spiraled until i had fifty controllers that were mostly just
boilerplate code . half of my logic was basically just
try { ... } catch (e) { next(e) }instead of actual business rules. i finally realized that >>writing manual error blocks is a massive waste of time and makes the codebase unreadable. now i use a global middleware wrapper to handle everything automatically.
it literally changed my life . anyone else still stuck using the old way or did you move to an async wrapper ages ago?
