ERROR.WTF

error.wtf is a developer utility that takes raw error messages — stack traces, HTTP codes, compiler errors, cryptic runtime exceptions — and translates them into clear, human-readable explanations. It's built as a full-stack product with a public REST API backend on Cloudflare Workers and a lightweight frontend on Cloudflare Pages.
Developers waste significant time decoding cryptic error messages across different languages, frameworks, and runtimes. Existing solutions either require context-switching to a chat interface or return overly verbose responses. The goal was a focused, no-friction tool: paste, translate, move on.
The backend is deployed as a Cloudflare Worker, keeping latency globally low and costs near zero. The API accepts an error string and returns a structured translation with a plain-English summary, likely cause, and suggested fix. The frontend is intentionally minimal — a single input, a single action, instant output.
