About Console
Console is a weekly newsletter reviewing the most interesting devtools and latest beta releases. We only cover the best tools for developers.
Written by David Mytton
I co-founded Console in 2021 and write the newsletter every week. I'm currently the CEO of Arcjet and previously co-founded Server Density, where I built the original cloud infrastructure monitoring product.
How we choose tools
We look for tools built for developers, with easy self-service signup and clear documentation that solve an interesting problem. Each review is a short assessment of the tool's strengths and limitations as if we were evaluating it for our own use. These are concise recommendations, not exhaustive benchmarks: the aim is to help you decide what to investigate for your own projects.
Beta listings highlight early releases from the past week or two, and are separate from tool reviews.
I discover tools through reader suggestions, release announcements, developer communities, and subscribing to newsletters, blogs, and other sources of information, including what I use myself.
Read our selection criteria or listen to me discuss the review process.
Editorial independence
We do not publish sponsored reviews. Advertising appears separately as clearly marked sponsored text in the newsletter.
I also invest in developer and infrastructure companies. You can see my public investment list alongside my role at Arcjet.
Why we started Console
I announced Console in January 2021 to help developers keep up with tools without having to follow every release or discussion. The newsletter brings together useful discoveries across developer tools, infrastructure, cloud services, and APIs.
Reading the archive
Each review records our assessment at publication. Its date is the review date, not the product’s release date. Products can change after we review them and we may not revisit them for some time or at all.
