+Custom GraphQL Error Masking
+============================
+
+This project includes a custom error formatting function for GraphQL
+responses that masks sensitive error details from clients.
+
+Purpose
+-------
+
+- Prevent exposing internal error details for security and user experience.
+- Allow whitelisting of exception classes that should be exposed as-is.
+- Return a generic error message for all other exceptions.
+
+Configuration
+-------------
+
+You can control the behavior using the ``GRAPHENE_ERRORS`` setting in your
+Django settings file under the ``GRAPHENE`` namespace:
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+    GRAPHENE = {
+        "GRAPHENE_ERRORS": {
+            "MASK_EXCEPTIONS": True,  # Enable or disable masking
+            "ERROR_MESSAGE": "A custom error message.",  # Defaults to "Something went wrong. Please try again later."
+            "WHITELISTED_EXCEPTIONS": [
+                "ValidationError",  # Whitelist by class name
+                "django.core.exceptions.ValidationError", # Whitelist by full module path
+                "myapp.custom_exceptions.MyCustomException", # Custom exception whitelist by full path
+            ],
+        }
+    }
+
+Behavior
+--------
+
+- If ``MASK_EXCEPTIONS`` is False, all errors are returned fully formatted.
+- If True, errors not in the whitelist will return only the generic message.
+- Whitelisted exceptions are returned with full error details.
+
+Usage
+-----
+
+The masking is automatically applied to the error responses of GraphQL
+queries and mutations through a custom error formatter method.
+
+You can modify or extend the whitelisted exceptions as needed to suit your
+project's error handling policy.
