I needed a test API returning Problem Details, but I couldn't find anything that returned the desired response. Using ChatGPT and Cloudflare Pages, problemdetails.io is born 👶🏻

I guess it's pretty normal to think that what you have built is cooler than everything else. But to be honest, with the recent changes in the Exception Inspector on elmah.io, I think this is the best visualization of a .NET stack trace hierarchy I have seen.
