# How To Handle Errors Like A Senior Dev

## Summary

Error handling evolves from scattered try-catch blocks to a centralized service layer using the Result pattern. The tutorial demonstrates extracting business logic into reusable services, creating custom error types, and implementing type-safe error handling with discriminated unions.
