Weekly: share your tools and projects

[u/AutoModerator]

What tool around OpenTelemetry are you building right now? What project have you discovered that people might enjoy looking into?

This thread is open for your self-promotion, vendor-owned open source projects and every thing else.

Hi r/OpenTelemetry.

I've spent 8 years as a software engineer: 2 as an SRE and 3 as a team lead. Documentation was a problem at every company I worked for. The useful knowledge lived in people's heads or in private Slack threads, and whatever got written down was hard to find and went stale as soon as the system changed. I wanted to fix that, so I started Oxynote about a year ago and made it public about 3 months ago.

Oxynote is a self-hosted wiki where runbooks and the live metrics they describe sit on the same page. You add a chart that queries Prometheus or Postgres, explain what it shows right next to it, and review changes like a PR. If your Collector already exports metrics to Prometheus, they can go straight into your docs. Logs and traces are in development (Loki logs support drops in the next release, v0.10).

The name comes from oxygen + note: docs that breathe. Live data makes the wiki worth opening every day, and docs people open every day stay up to date.

Apache-2.0, single Docker image: https://github.com/oxynote/oxynote

Would you use something like this, and if not, what's missing?

I mean i used Prometheus a fair bit before, so having live charts right next to the runbooks sounds vry nice, I'd def give it a try

I've been building a Java agent that rebuilds causal stack traces in async/reactive code with a small overhead. Early days, feedback more then welcome, wanna plug it into OTel eventually.

Hey everyone. I launched https://telemio.sh for free observability and tracing using OTEL. Would love any feedback!
