DevTrace Workspace

I built DevTrace to give backend teams a practical, low-overhead way to spot slow routes, query bottlenecks, and memory spikes before those issues become production incidents.

How its built -

Monorepo layout:

• packages/devtrace-node: publishable Node.js observability package
• apps/demo-dashboard: demo app that consumes the package

Quick start

cp apps/demo-dashboard/.env.example apps/demo-dashboard/.env
npm install
createdb devtrace
npm run db:init
npm run dev

Open http://localhost:4000.

Workspace commands

• npm run dev -> runs demo app
• npm run start -> starts demo app without nodemon
• npm run db:init -> applies package schema to DB
• npm run test -> runs package tests
• npm run test:all -> runs tests across all workspaces
