JavaScript Error Tracking with {Track:js}

The web today is far more than your server stack! Content is combined with a rich interactive layer of JavaScript and mashed up with external social, advertising, or service providers. All this into a rapidly changing environment of new browsers, new rendering engines, new libraries, and new plugins.

My founders and I at {Track:js} believe that JavaScript can and should be better--we should know about our errors--and we should fix them! It's our mission to give you the tools to do this.

Let's talk about why you should care about your clientside errors, and how to build a basic implementation. Then I'd like to show you how {Track:js} can accelerate it, improving quality, and giving you more context about your errors than you thought possible!
