Console’s review

· Reviewed by David Mytton

What we like

Visual representation of how your Rust code is executing with a full call tree. Capture all parameters and return values for all functions. Makes it easier to trace errors through Results so you don’t lose the context of the error. Only traces user code avoiding getting bogged down in libraries.

Tradeoffs

Only works if you are using Cargo Workspaces. No async Rust support.
