Contributions summary:Andrés primarily focused on improving the `voc` transpiler by addressing error handling and compilation flow. Their work involved modifying the `ast.py` file to propagate exceptions, handle unimplemented features, and replace print statements with logging. Additionally, the user implemented a feature to ensure that non-implemented features in functions don't abort compilation unless the function is called. Finally, the user added tests to validate the handling of `yield from` statements.
