Summary

Production JavaScript has evolved significantly, with practices like transpilation, bundling, and minification becoming standard, but these can obscure code and complicate error detection. New Relic Browser now offers source map support to address this issue, allowing developers to map JavaScript errors back to the original source code to streamline troubleshooting. This feature includes an intuitive drag-and-drop function within the New Relic Browser dashboard and a robust API for integrating source maps into build systems, enabling automated error mapping in production environments. By simplifying JavaScript error debugging, New Relic Browser aims to enhance the end-user experience by reducing client-side errors and providing developers with the tools needed for effective error resolution.
