I’ve built web applications for 15 years. Some have succeeded and flourished, others have crashed and burned. But I’ve learned some hard-won lessons along the way: techniques that correlate with maintainable code and long-term success. Maybe they can help you.
TrackJS error monitoring, on your servers. We’re thrilled to announce official support for Node environments and the 1.0.0 release of our Node agent. We’ve actually had Node since sometime last year, but we’re finally formalizing it as a first-class citizen and fully-supported part of TrackJS! Here are some of the cool things you can do with TrackJS for Node.
The TrackJS team is hard at work polishing the product to make it even better at tracking JavaScript Errors. Here’s what we shipped this Spring.
We recently needed to parse and modify some query strings while building Request Metrics. Query string parsing has never been pleasant in .NET, has it improved in .NET Core? We were familiar with HttpUtility.ParseQueryString() for the task, but that API has a major landmine. With the release of .NET Core, Microsoft took another swing at it. We figured we’d try the new way and see how they did! If you want the fully uncensored version, check out the video above.
We’ve been working on something big. We’re building Request Metrics, a new service for web performance monitoring. TrackJS is a fantastic tool to understand web page errors, but what if your pages aren’t broken, just slow? What if the checkout page takes 10 seconds to load? What if that user API is slowing down from your recent database change? What pages have the worst user experience? Request Metrics will tell you that.

It’s a new year and TrackJS has a new look. It’s smaller, it’s simpler, and it feels friendly–just like TrackJS. These minor refinements to our brand do a better job at emphasizing what were best at: easy to use and user-focused. The colors are brighter and clearer, the fonts are more refined, and there is just less noise.
Two months in one! We’re wrapping things up for the year, but wanted to give you all an update on all the great things we’ve shipped in the closing of 2019.
Ignoring noisy and external errors is important to understanding the health of your client-side applications. Third-party scripts, user extensions, content crawlers, and non-impactful errors create lots of noise in web operations. With TrackJS Ignore Rules, you can filter out this noise and and have a clear view of your web application quality.
