OpenPerf collects errors, traces, logs and performance data from your applications and shows them in one dashboard.

- **Start.** Create a project and send the first events with the [Quickstart](/quickstart).
- **Send data.** Use the [SDK](/sdk), upload [source maps](/releases), or send plain [OpenTelemetry](/opentelemetry).
- **Use it.** Triage [errors](/errors), find slow code in Performance, and get [alerts](/alerts).
- **Connect it.** Send events to your systems with [webhooks](/webhooks), or let AI assistants query OpenPerf over [MCP](/mcp).
- **Run it yourself.** See [Self-hosting](/self-hosting/overview).

The design system the dashboard is built with is under **Deft UI**. Guides for contributors are under **Development**.
