Inspiration

MonoMonitor was inspired by the need for an efficient tool to monitor multiple developer workflows in one place. Developers often have to juggle between various platforms like Vercel and GitHub to track logs and activity, leading to context switching and inefficiency. MonoMonitor streamlines this process by allowing users to simply prompt the app with a command like “show me my Vercel and GitHub logs” and instantly get an intuitive UI displaying live logs from both platforms. The aim is to make monitoring as effortless as typing a natural language prompt, saving time and boosting productivity.

What it does

MonoMonitor integrates multiple development platforms such as Vercel and GitHub, fetching and displaying logs in real-time. Users can input prompts to monitor their workflows, and MonoMonitor generates a dashboard with log cards streaming data from specified platforms. This allows developers to view all their important logs in a unified interface, reducing the friction of managing multiple sources of information.

Had four goals:

✅ Generate unique ui, dashboard based

✅ Have magic loops instructive structure influence the prompt engineering for more difficult fetching

✅ Live streams for one platform

✅ Deployment on the cloud

🎉🎉🎉🎉 Woohoo

How we built it

MonoMonitor is built using Next.js for the frontend, with Drizzle ORM managing database interactions and Chakra UI for a sleek, user-friendly interface. We integrated the OpenAI API to process user input and transform it into log-fetching commands. The Vercel and GitHub APIs are used to stream log data, which is displayed in real-time on the app's dynamically generated cards. Additionally, Drizzle Kit was used to handle migrations and schema evolution.

Challenges we ran into

One of the main challenges was handling real-time streaming of logs from different platforms without overwhelming the UI. Ensuring the stability of the log streams, especially when combining multiple sources, proved difficult. Integrating APIs from both Vercel and GitHub in a unified way, while keeping performance optimized, was also a complex task. Balancing real-time updates with the need for a smooth user experience required careful optimization.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We are proud of successfully creating a unified monitoring experience that simplifies a key pain point for developers. The seamless integration of different platforms into a single view, combined with a natural language interface, was a significant achievement. We also managed to build a highly efficient, real-time system that is responsive and intuitive, helping developers stay focused on their core tasks.

What we learned

Throughout this project, we learned a great deal about real-time log streaming and handling multiple API integrations. We also gained deeper insights into optimizing UI components for real-time data rendering and balancing performance with functionality. Additionally, working with Drizzle ORM and Drizzle Kit helped us understand how to build more maintainable and scalable database solutions.

What's next for MonoMonitor

In the future, we plan to expand MonoMonitor's capabilities by integrating more platforms such as CircleCI, Netlify, and AWS. We also want to add advanced filtering and alerting features, so users can set up custom notifications when specific events occur in their logs. Expanding the prompt processing abilities to handle more complex user commands and improving performance for even larger scale log streaming are also key goals.
