Basic Error Handling with try...catch

The try...catch statement allows you to handle errors gracefully. Code in the 'try' block is executed, and if it throws an exception, the 'catch' block runs.

javascript
try {
  const data = JSON.parse("{ invalid json }");
} catch (error) {
  console.error("An error occurred:", error.message);
}

nextjs
