Project Glimpse: Node Edition

Glimpse is an experimental npm package that gives you in-depth insights about the client and server sides of your Node.js apps. More efficient debugging means faster development. Best of all, it’s free.

Full details and documentation available at http://node.getglimpse.com.

Getting started

1. In your app's root directory, use npm to install Glimpse.

   npm install @glimpse/glimpse --save-dev
   

2. Initialize Glimpse before any other require() or application logic (typically at the top of index.js or app.js).

   if (process.env.NODE_ENV !== 'production') {
     require('@glimpse/glimpse').init();
   }
   

3. Open your app in a browser. The Glimpse HUD should now be at the bottom right of your app.
