Understanding the nature of an error is the first step toward its resolution, and even a seemingly straightforward JavaScript error can take a developer hours to investigate, let alone fix. To reduce this time in the trenches, Noibu is leveraging Open AI technology to add English explanations to JS errors.
If an error has a Stacktrace that clearly defines the line of code triggering the error message, you’ll see a Generate Explanation button at the top of the Developer tab. Once you click the button, Noibu will pass that line to the AI system, which generates a human-readable explanation of the problem and its impact.
This technology learns over time, and we anticipate the information will only become more viable as Noibu users generate and use error explanations. You can help out by rating each explanation with a thumbs up or thumbs down–this directly strengthens the AI's capabilities.
