Hey everyone, I had posted about my project https://adzejs.com a couple of years ago and it was met with a lot of interest, so I'm writing about the major v2 update that's just been released to see if anyone is interested. What makes Adze interesting compared to other logging libraries like pino, bunyan, winston, etc? Adze is universal. This means that Adze will "just work" in all of your environments. This is especially handy when working with SSR projects like sveltekit, nuxt, next, etc. You can also use Adze with Bun or Deno without any special adaptations or considerations.…

As a longtime TypeScript/Node.js developer, I've often faced challenges with logging—choosing, using, and maintaining the right logger for various projects. While most loggers offer the usual methods like "info", "warn", and "error", they vary significantly in how they handle structured metadata or Error objects. This can lead to ad-hoc solutions, like serializing errors or writing custom pipelines, just to get logs formatted correctly. I built LogLayer to address these pain points by introducing a fluid, expressive API. With methods like "withMetadata" and "withError", LogLayer…

Hi HN, I built this because I got tired of the Claude Code CLI hiding details from me. Recent updates have replaced critical output with summaries like "Read 3 files" or "Edited 2 files". To see what actually happened, I was forced to use `--verbose`, which floods the terminal with unreadable JSON and system prompts. I wanted a middle ground: *Full observability without the noise.* `claude-devtools` is a local Electron app that tails the session logs in `~/.claude/` to reconstruct the execution trace in real-time. *Unlike wrappers, it solves the visibility gap in your native…

I first shared Caravan on HN in 2024[0]. At the time, I had built the initial version over the Christmas holidays. You guys seemed to enjoy it. Today, I’ve released another major update after spending the last couple of weeks working on it. [0]: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=42508130

Hey HN, the is Chris, creator of FireDBG. We’ve been working on this debugger just about a year now. Time travel debugging isn’t a new concept, the new idea here is to use call tree visualisation to help us navigate the debug trace. It supports various Linux distros on x64 and macOS on x64 and M1. It’s only available for Rust right now, but we do want to bring this debugging experience to other programming languages. Please give it a try! Would love to know your thoughts. What’s your anecdote in debugging programs? My stupidity is usually in the form of: after a few hours of debugging, I…

Hello I'm Jack, I was previously a Site Reliability Engineer and i've been working on monitro.dev which makes log monitoring simple for individuals or small teams. It allows you to easily forward any logs to multiple channels such as Slack, Discord & Telegram. The events are also viewable though the admin dashboard and are easily filterable. Currently there is only an NPM package with javascript / typescript support but i have plans to expand this to other languages such as Python, Rust etc. The package has many options, one of them is forwarding any uncaught exception and as an event…

We create minimalistic and secure container base images. All images only contain the relevant package (e.g. python) and its dependencies. We even created our own Linux distro, called MinimOS, to be in control of all packages and build a new version as soon as it is available upstream. As opposed to Alpine Linux we mostly use glibc. Images are re-built daily and we continuously add more of them. By using our base images you can easily reduce the number of vulnerabilities by more than 90% (compared to Docker Hub). You can use our images for free (the 'latest' line) here:…

Hey HN We’ve been building Logdash as a lightweight observability tool for side projects and prototypes. Most logging/metrics tools (Prometheus, Grafana, ELK...) are amazing, but feel like overkill when you're just hacking on something small. Logdash gives you: - Real-time logs and custom metrics - Zero config (no YAML, no setup) - One tiny SDK to drop in - Hosted UI with live dashboards We use Logdash to monitor Logdash — our own prod dashboard is public here: https://logdash.io/demo-dashboard Would love feedback, ideas, or questions!

Hey Hackers, I was building multiple projects lately, and integrating logging was way too much for me. Managing self hosted ELK stack, or using existing log monitoring services (running their agent was consuming hell of resources on my tiny servers). It took me a day to code my own logging server, and client for python projects (serving as python packages - pypi), named it HueLogs. Sharing with you all, please feel free to contribute if you like. I might be adding a npm package for javascript client if I get chance to code tomorrow. Few features too add: - 30 min, last day logs etc. -…

I wrote a minimal traceroute(1) clone that leans on asynchrony to reduce the time spent tracing a route. Underneath, it uses ICMP to do its job. The plan is to add support for UDP tracing and a path maximum transmission unit discovery mechanism. Comments and suggestions are welcome!

This has been in use on our production systems for around two years now at Switchboard (https://switchboard.app). The problem we had was that we were using two different logging libs for our frontend and backend at the time (specifically roarr, and bunyan), and the API for the logging libs were not compatible with each other. Loglayer was designed to wrap around popular JS logging libraries where you can swap out any underlying library without re-writing your log entries to adapt to the new library. One common example is using plain "console" as a starting integration, but later…
