Description

Parent Issue

https://github.com/dotCMS/core/issues/30943

Task

As a JavaScript Developer, I want to ensure errors within SDK components do not crash the entire webpage and are standardized, so I can have a better developer experience and easier debugging.

Proposed Objective

Core Features
