https://jam.dev is the best debugging / qa tool. Not sure how they missed it.

Jam | Senior fullstack engineer | Remote
Hey HN! I’m Dani, the CEO of Jam (https://jam.dev), a new dev tools startup building a new way to capture and debug frontend bugs - here's a 90 sec video: https://youtu.be/iXjmUwZLzVs.
We have raised $10M+ from the CTO of GitHub, CTO of PagerDuty, CEO of Cloudflare, etc., and are growing quickly. We're a team of strong generalist engineers (mostly early ex-Cloudflare) and we're looking for someone with experience building highly performant front-end apps.
The stack is fullstack javascript - react/typescript front end, and node/graphql backend. Every engineer on the team works fullstack.
Would love to chat if that sounds interesting to you. You can reach out: [email protected].

Jam | Founding Engineer | Full-time | Remote (US/EU timezones)
Jam (https://jam.dev) is looking for a founding engineer to join a team of three ex-Cloudflare teammates building the product we wished we could have used while building parts of Cloudflare.
We're builders building for builders, our goal is simple: to help teams ship products faster by bringing the out-of-the-flow communication happening in tools like Jira and Slack into-the-flow.
More about us and the role: https://www.notion.so/Founding-Engineer-ff63a0bf33734fe8939061fc941ed5…
If this sounds like something that could be interesting to you, we'd love to chat.
Reach out to [email protected], subject line: `javascript with a side of ${favorite kind of jam} jam`

Can you use https://jam.dev/ to file the bug report?
Joking aside, this looks really cool!

Awesome, I will check back regularly.
This looks like one of those tools that is genuinely really useful. I would love be able to tell my users to just fireup a browser extension and record a bug, rather than having to step them through how to capture all that data manually.
Well Done!

I think https://jam.dev/ should do it!
(not affiliated - just a fan)

I think https://jam.dev should help, it was built by a few ex pms to solve this gap

https://jam.dev/utilities/ gives more useful info than the git repo.

From https://jam.dev/docs:
Jam is a browser extension that allows you to create the perfect bug report in just one click. You will now be able to capture an instant replay of the bug happening on your web app and include all the developer logs required to cut your bug reporting time by 20x.
(to me that was a more useful summary)

I see in the Security page [0] that you filter out headers that you think are PII or tokens. And I see that you're willing to receive feedback via email. I don't think this approach is scalable, for the main reason that sometimes we use custom headers to pass tokens.
My suggestion is to have a setting that lists default headers you think should be obfuscated, and the user/team can remove and add to them as they like.

Jam.dev | Staff Fullstack Engineer & AI Product Engineer | Typescript/React | Remote (+ in person in SF, Austin, NYC) | Full-time
Dev tools company with 200,000+ users in 2 years. $10M in funding from Vercel CEO, GitHub CTO, Cloudflare CEO, etc.
We’re building a flight recorder for web apps – so anyone can report issues to engineers in a way that's actually debuggable (w/ console, network, websockets debugger, etc).
Small, senior team – several ex-engineering directors turned ICs (mostly ex-early Cloudflare). Looking for staff-level engineers with experience building highly performant front-end apps.
Stack: React/Typescript and MobX (MST) on the frontend, and Node/GraphQL across our backend.
The challenge ahead: Scaling. Usage 10x’ed last year, and our users are in 176 countries, on all sorts of devices, network conditions, etc. Our bar for quality is high.
As a dev tool, developers at Jam are directly connected and involved with the product. Your usage of the product will directly inform the direction of Jam’s future.
