Hey friends,

I have written an open source JS lib named Adze that I believe blows away all of the competition. It is a logging library that runs natively in both the browser and node without any special considerations. It also offers every feature you could want for formatting and annotating your logs as well as a convenient interface for processing your logging data without requiring silly plugin API's.

The API for Adze is also chainable, fully wraps the standard console API's, is TypeScript native, supports mapped diagnostic context and micro-frontends.

My question is, what tips would you give me for marketing the library and making people more aware of it?

I'm also very open to constructive criticism on the library and codebase and would love any feedback that I could be provided.

One good thing would be to show some details without needing to open the dev tools. Lots of people use mobile devices, especially when reading the channels you are likely to market this on.
That's a great point. I've been thinking about making an interactive widget playground for the library.
When marketing you should be focused on your customer's problems, not your product.

What is it worth my time looking into this in depth? All you've said is that it's the best and it's got a good API. What's the hook?

Yes, I need to refocus the homepage content to show the parts that are better. I think I need to separate the API reference from the Getting Started guide (it's kind of mixed).
