My goal for debug.vision is to make logs of any kind easier to analyse. Lots of programs output logging and in today’s online world, everything is connected.

For logs this can be a challenge because logs are typically not read interleaved with other logs, so seeing the actually connections is hard.

Enter my vision: Debug.Vision, a tool that collects logs from all kinds of different sources and makes them searchable, tokenized, color coded and allows you to graphically visualize the relationships you are looking for.

In 2012 with the help of a colleague I started a project called DebugView++ that resembled dbgview from sysinternals. It was written in C++ using WTL. However, this makes it a windows-only application and while performant also graphically lacking in richness.

Its time to take this to the next level; I took the vision described above and started collecting requirements and ideas for Debug.vision
