Logdy.dev – web based logs viewer UI for local development environment
For local development, I cannot recommend lnav[1] enough. Discovering this tool was a game changer in my day to day life. Adding comments, filtering in/out, prettify and analyse distribution is hard to live without now.
I don't think a browser tool would fit in my workflow. I need to pipe the output to the tool.

Ask HN: How does `lnav` run its playground which you can just SSH into?
It looks like they run an SSH server inside a Docker container defined by this Dockerfile [1]. This uses the ForceCommand directive in the sshd_config file to ensure that a specific command is run when a user connects (rather than the user connecting directly to a shell).
Depending on whether the user connects as the `playground` or `tutorial1` user they interact with a bash script that is either [2] or [3].
