Error tracking with Sentry

February 14, 2023

Error tracking and alerting are crucial in the production environment, proactively fixing the errors leads to a better user experience. Sentry is one of the error tracking services, and it provides alerting for unhandled exceptions. You should receive an email when something wrong happens.
