SurveyJS
Open-Source JSON Form Builder to Create Dynamic Forms Right in Your App. With SurveyJS form UI libraries, you can build and style forms in a fully-integrated drag & drop form builder, render them in your JS app, and store form submission data in any backend, inc. PHP, ASP.NET Core, and Node.js.
Popular open standards for application instrumentation(the process of enabling application code to generate trace data) like OpenTelemetry follow the W3C Trace Context specification.
OpenTelemetry provides libraries to take care of your application instrumentation. You need a tracing backend to store, analyze and visualize the generated trace data by OpenTelemetry. SigNoz is an open-source distributed tracing tool built natively to support OpenTelemetry. You can check out its GitHub repo.
World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) has recommendations on the format of trace contexts. The aim is to develop a standardized format of passing trace context over standard protocols like HTTP. It saves a lot of time in distributed tracing implementation and ensures interoperability between various tracing tools.
