This RFC is an attempt to identify and standardize error codes for GraphQL errors. This has bee previously discussed, and some great work and ideas came out of it. Follow the previous discussion here - #698

This is especially true for statically typed compiled languages like c, rust etc, where the compiler scolds and guides the programmer to fix the program's syntax.
