Products that do what Android SDK that supports OpenTelemetry export does
I've been working on an open source Android SDK that supports OpenTelemetry export. I'm excited about this as observability SDKs have traditionally used proprietary schemas that make it hard to export & analyse production data. Would be great to hear any feedback/comments folks might have! Here's the Android SDK: https://github.com/embrace-io/embrace-android-sdk There is also an iOS SDK, but I've been less directly involved in that: https://github.com/embrace-io/embrace-apple-sdk

Hi HN, We’re the team at MyDecisive.ai, and today we’re giving developers a peek at Octant — point-and-click control and visibility for your OpenTelemetry. You've likely felt the pain of the "observability tax," especially if you manage K8S clusters. The modern standard is to instrument everything with OpenTelemetry, but piping all those rich OTLP logs, metrics, and traces straight to a SaaS vendor (Datadog, Splunk, Honeycomb) gets expensive fast. You end up paying massive ingestion and storage costs for noisy, low-value data just so it's searchable when something breaks. With Octant you get…

Hey HN, Ola and Karthik here. We are working on Langtrace(https://github.com/Scale3-Labs/langtrace), an open source, open telemetry based SDK and monitoring/evaluations client for LLM based applications. The SDK generates OTEL standard spans and traces for popular LLMs like OpenAI, Anthropic and Cohere, popular frameworks like Langchain and LlamaIndex and vectorDBs like ChromaDB and Pinecone. The LLM monitoring/evaluations space has seen a number of products off late, both open source and closed source ones. But, a couple of things we have observed are: lack of…

Project Maya has started! For those who haven't read about Maya, please look here: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4103344 Our goal is to build an open source application that can run in your browser and on iOS/Android without being dependent on app stores. We currently have a working "sneak preview" version viewable over here: http://frontend2.com Want to dig into the source? https://github.com/SchizoDuckie/project-maya We recommend you to check it out in Google Chrome/iOS/Android. Our team currently consists of 5 people. If you think you'd be a good addition, please shoot me an email,…

We use an SDK (shake-to-report) to extract a lot of information (Session Recording, API/Network Calls, Crash Logs, Device Details, etc) when a bug is reported on Native Android/iOS. Then all these comprehensive bug reports can be viewed on our Dashboard, where there's also an AI suggested solution for all reported bugs. We need more contributors to expand this solution to React, Flutter, Unity, other cross-platform Frameworks.

Empower your product manager. Let them decide what the messages to your users say, when those messages are triggered, as well as how they are sent (sms, email, etc.) while you focus on building product features. They'll be able to use trusted providers like sendgrid, twilio and apple so you don't have to worry about message delivery.

Over this past month I had the idea to build a 100% open-source MIT-licensed tool to simplify sharing code with LLMs, without the vendor lock-in you get from most SDKs. Right now, it’s way too hard to export your data or work freely with models like o1 PRO or Grok 3, especially since they don’t even have API access. So I built OpenRepoPrompt, an open-source tool from wildberry-source that serializes files and folders into XML for LLMs. I coded/designed from 12PM -> 11PM on Saturday and 8AM -> 11PM on Sunday. There are still tons of features missing (I'm working on better file filtering…

I started SourceDNA because I wanted to build a highly scalable, cross-platform binary similarity engine. We can dump in libraries and apps from all over and discern patterns in their code. We've been scanning thousands of mobile apps and finding what's inside, and we wanted to make this data available now for others to explore. Clickable link: http://sourcedna.com/stats/ This interface lets you see which SDKs (ads, analytics, optimization, etc.) or cross-platform tools (Unity, Adobe AIR, Xamarin, etc.) were used to create the top 500 free apps on both iTunes and Google…

Hey HN, I wanted to share with you what I've been working on for the past few months – the Splunk Developer Platform[1]. We released our Python SDK[2] back in August, but just last week we released our Java[3] and JavaScript[4] ones, and the JS SDK was the one I've been working on. It was a great learning experience for me – first real foray into JavaScript and Node (the SDK works in both the browser and Node), and was a lot of fun to try different things out releasing it. I ended up building on a couple of open source libraries (and contributing back). We are building out Splunk's developer…

Hello HN! I'm an Android OS engineer. I've worked with AOSP and Linux kernels all my career and always wondered about lack of sophisticated tools to debug and analyze system-level logs. Always had to resort to manually skimming through large log files to find something I needed to. With the rise of LLMs and the AI-age, I felt it was a great opportunity to build something for OS engineers, which is what led to logcat.ai! We are building the industry-first observability platform for system level intelligence. Think "Datadog for operating systems" instead of applications. Currently, we support…

Hi HN! So this all started out as an experiment. I wanted to test the Golang gomobile library to build a small app on Android in Go. And it turned out to be a game, and harder than I thought... After a lot of work and many gotchas (and a lot of moments where I was about to give up and started to squint on Unity) I finally manage to create a working game for Android with Go. The game is quite simple and if it wasn't for being written in OpenGL/OpenAL from scratch it would be quite simple to make it in Unity or any other game engine for that matter. Another goal of my project was actually…

We believe the best software is built when devs seriously use the thing they're building. We're a mobile dev tools company (emergetools.com), but we don't actually build & ship "apps"... until now. Excited to share our first open-source app: Hacker News for Android Any feedback/PRs very welcome on the repo. We also wrote about why we built and open-sourced this HN app here: https://www.emergetools.com/blog/posts/open-sourcing-emerge-...

I’ve always wanted to localize my personal apps, but I found it to be too expensive. Since many apps share the same vocabulary (News Feed, Dashboard, Forgot Password, Take Photo), it seemed silly to pay to translate words that some other development team must have previously paid to translate. So, I’ve created an open-source translation memory for all iOS developers to benefit from. I processed over 500K GitHub iOS projects, AppleGlot, and other open-source resources and created a database of almost 15 million translations. Check it out here:…
