Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

When getting an error, it is not everytime clear where it comes from. For example, when using Vue.js, you am getting an error message which looks like this (note the line of code next to vue.js:)

vue.js:597 [Vue warn]: Error in created hook: "TypeError: ... is not a function"

found in

---> <StageExecs>

In Nativescript / nativescript-vue you get an error message which looks like this:

JS: [Vue warn]: Error in created hook: "TypeError: Cannot read property '...' of undefined"
JS:
JS: found in
JS:
JS: ---> <IsRenovationFinishedField> at SomeFile.vue

But if you don't know the line of code it is very hard to find the error.

Describe the solution you'd like

Next to JS there should be a code line indicator

Describe alternatives you've considered
