concurrently VS signoz

Before we begin, it's essential to ensure that we have Tailwind CSS and Concurrently installed. Tailwind CSS utility classes will be used for styling our project and will not affect the functionality. Concurrently will allow us to run our React frontend and server file simultaneously on our machines. For now, knowing the purpose that Concurrently serves is enough. We will see how to make it work later in the article.

To efficiently develop and test these applications, it’s essential to run React and Express servers simultaneously. One option is to manually start each server using separate terminal windows or tabs, but this approach is cumbersome and inefficient. An option is to use the concurrently or npm-run-all  CLI tools designed to run multiple npm-scripts in parallel or sequentially.

Let's configure our scripts in the package.json file to launch JSON-Server, to make the process easier we will use Concurrently, an NPM package that allow us to run multiple commands simultaneously.

Lastly if you want to run your dev build tool and backend as a single command you could try something like pm2 (https://www.npmjs.com/package/pm2) or concurrently (https://www.npmjs.com/package/concurrently). This isn't necessary but might be a nice-to-have. NPM workspaces could help you organize this with a common package.json file too. (https://docs.npmjs.com/cli/v7/using-npm/workspaces)

We attempted to use a combination of tsc --watch, concurrently and Nodemon, but started to run into things breaking left and right, e.g.

Now, the tsconfig.vitest.json seems to be the most "complete" (it will check app files as well as test files), so it's a good choice if you really had to choose one config and run with it (and you still get type checking in the IDE for each config). But, this doesn't include the files from tsconfig.config.json, and as an app grows, the "app" and "vitest" configs may diverge, so wouldn't it be best to use something like concurrently or npm-run-all to run vue-tsc against all 3 configs?

You should also check out SigNoz [1], we are an open-core alternative to DataDog - based natively on OpenTelemetry. We also have a cloud product if you don't want to host yourself

You might want to have a look at SigNoz [1] as well. We have also published some perf benchmark wrt Elastic & Loki [2] and have some cool features like logs pipeline for manipulating logs before ingestion

SigNoz maintainer here.

We also have traces, metrics and logs in a single application which makes correlation across them much easier. From what I can understand from Quickwit website, they use Grafana and Jaeger for UI.

Using user's private with no opt-out option is unethical.

If anyone is looking self-hosted for alternatives then they should try SigNoz: https://github.com/SigNoz/signoz

SigNoz is a great New Relic alternative that is open-source and provides three signals in a single pane of glass. You can monitor logs, metrics, and traces and correlate signals for better insights into application performance.

If anyone wants to check the project, here's our github repo - https://github.com/signoz/signoz

You need a backend to which you can send the collected data for monitoring and visualization. SigNoz is an OpenTelemetry-native APM that is well-suited for visualizing OpenTelemetry data.

Once the data is collected, it needs to be sent to a backend. That’s where SigNoz comes into the picture. SigNoz is an open-source OpenTelemetry-native APM that provides logs, metrics and traces under a single pane of glass.
