Hey, that's me!

Dicussed on r/programming this morning[0] (on my side of the world) where someone probably picked it up

I'll be in the thread for a while I guess

Is this available only for Python? or can I send stacktraces from JS/Rust/etc?

It's Sentry-SDK-compatible [0] which means that there's like a 100 integrations available. The amount of work one needs to do server-side to enrich events is language-dependent and driven by demand, which means that JS support is "pretty good" and for Rust you'll probably be looking at something that's not very "rich" (since symbol info will be missing[1]).

I’ve used Sentry to track bugs from client-side JavaScript, server-side Python, native iOS apps, and native Android apps.

You say you’re compatible with the Sentry SDKs, but it’s not at all clear to me which of these platforms will do useful things with Bugsink and which will not.

Fair enough; I'll update the documentation to reflect the state of the art a bit more clearly. In the meantime, I'd say the best way is simply to try the 30 second-install and send over a test-event (a matter of switching out the DSN) to see how it shows up.

Thanks for creating this! I would love to contribute to this a little bit, maybe if I can get into python I will try and make a useful contribution, but for now I am using it to make all my go services alert me faster and more easily when shit hits the fan.
