24 alternatives to Google Chrome extension monitors your Rails/Node apps
My new project: track your web apps' performance under load without being flooded by email or keeping browser tabs open all day to watch your stats.

Hey HN. We’re Jay and Vadim from Highlight.io (https://highlight.io). We’re building an open source [1] monitoring platform for web applications.
