Error messages are part of our daily lives online. Every time a server is down or we don't have internet, or we forget to add some info in a form, we get an error message. Something went wrong" is the classic. But what went wrong? What happened? And, most importantly, how can I fix it?

I really enjoyed this article detailing a massive project at Wix to go through and rephrase every single error message to make them easier to parse and overall less... Useless. A lot of developers can learn from this article.
