API errors are first class citizens

Link –

Rob Allen, an active member of the Zend Framework community, makes the case for giving some love to API errors.

It's not hard to have great error responses; you just need to care. Poor error response cause developers to give up with an API and go elsewhere, so it's a competitive advantage to get this right.

Developers integrating with your API will thank you.
