Originally created by @DanSheps on GitHub (Oct 11, 2023).

Proposed Changes

  1. Provide meaningful errors for each assert
  2. Catch assertions in the edit views when generating cable paths and return a user-friendly message
  3. (Optional) Provide a list of unsupported connections in the documents or as part of the error

Justification

Currently, when an assert is generated, we receive the default Django exception page. This would clean up the error while still providing good user feedback.

The error message portion is being fixed under #15016 however we should do something about the third item (documentation)
