Research direction

Start at the API page entry point and review how no response and 404 errors from xkcd are currently surfaced. Define a reusable error-page template that accepts API name and information, show an xkcd-specific unavailable message for those failures, and retain a generic fallback for other API pages.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Implement error page/s.

Should probably handle error/no response gracefully.
An "xkcd API unavailable" message would be better than a generic error page if the error is no response/404 from xkcd.

A generic template could be inserted with API name/info then appear on that APIs page.
