@parcel/diagnostic provides a standardized way to handle diagnostics (errors, warnings, hints) within the Parcel ecosystem. It defines a consistent data structure for representing diagnostic messages, including details like file path, source location, message severity, and suggested actions. This uniformity simplifies error reporting and allows Parcel tooling to present diagnostic information in a user-friendly and consistent manner across different build processes and integrations. It also facilitates machine-parseable output for IDEs and other tools.
