Bug: wrong channel slug is not raising an error

CodeDay Labs team mentored by Jagbir Kaur. Our group has a combined experience of around 3 years in software development, with a strong focus on backend engineering, open-source contributions, and working with technologies like GraphQL, Django, and Docker. For this project, we utilized some open-source tools and libraries, such as Django and Saleor's existing codebase, but all custom code contributions, optimizations, and enhancements were developed entirely by our team. We didn't use any pre-made art, music, or starter kits beyond the foundational tools provided by the Saleor project itself.

We encountered several challenges during the project, including compatibility issues when setting up the local development environment, particularly with package installations on Windows. We also faced difficulties with error handling in the GraphQL API, where invalid inputs were not generating meaningful feedback. Additionally, optimizing database queries to improve performance for large datasets required careful refinement of the code. Lastly, coordinating our efforts across different time zones was a logistical challenge that we overcame through effective communication and collaboration.
