Observable front-end applications - an open source product experiment

2 replies
Hi, this is an open-source product experiment.
I am building an interesting product and would like to hear your opinion. The design and implementation of this product are open and transparent.
Of course, the code will also be **open-source**. I will synchronize the latest progress and ideas on https://twitter.com/rick3617502342
Let's get started~
Front-end applications are becoming increasingly complex. However, at the same time, we cannot understand the running status and performance of the application, namely the observability of the front-end application.
Google Analysis and Sentry are great, but there are always problems such as platform fragmentation, high prices, and data ownership.
Therefore, I want to develop a product to collect various data on front-end applications, help developers discover online issues, get insight into page performance, and promote user growth.

# What is the product
- Data collection: Front-end page error monitoring (alarm), performance, user event tracking
- Visualization: Embedded dashboard, visualizing the above data.
# Target Users
- Small and medium-sized companies, individual developers who do not want to pay for expensive SaaS services (Google Analytics, Sentry).
- Product developers who want to own the data
# Product goals
- Open source and free 😄😄😄
- Ready to use, deploy in 1 minute
- Single tenant and only support a single site
- Focus on privacy and compliance
# Some confusion
- I am not familiar with GDPR and not sure how to ensure privacy and compliance.
- Can it be integrated with [Grafana Faro](https://grafana.com/oss/faro/) or [OpenTelemetry](https://github.com/open-telemetr...)?
# Interesting ideas
- Maybe the entire product can be deployed to Cloudflare. Unfortunately, the size limit of [D1 database](https://blog.cloudflare.com/intr...) is 100M.
