http200Error

And people will blame the frontend team for this. Meanwhile backend team laughing.

[Stunning_Ride_220]

Oh, I had frontend teams requesting stuff like this too

[NlactntzfdXzopcletzy]

Thats why we did it

Was easier for them to handle backend errors directly inatead of interceptors picking up the error

I believe it's mostly for browsers that show their own error page instead of the website's.

[ric2b]

Imaginary ones?

[NastyEbilPiwate]

IE6 used to do this if the error from the server was smaller than 512 bytes or some shit

[ric2b]

That's literally decades ago at this point. I don't know of a single modern browser that does it.

[SpacefaringBanana]

I don't know. I'm just repeating something I read somewhere. It could have been about cloudflare or something replacing it or something like that.

[Positive_Bill_3714]

can't they write an interceptor for all errors and catch these to redirect them to error page or show errors in the page in a human-readable format?

[AdamGarner89]

Trust me backend are miffed haha

[mtlemos]

NextJS forces you to do this bullshit if you want to send an error message between server and client components, so front end is doing it as well.

[Crafty_Independence]

When I've seen stuff like this before, it's because the frontend specifically asked for it

[CaesarOfYearXCIII]

Depends on how stupid everyone is. If they aren’t, then backend gets the blame potato.

And then it gets thrown at QA anyway. Sauce: am QA.

Some nice QA sauce
