Live coding platform

[BFergerson]

Hello SkyWalkers,

I would like to introduce you to Source++, an open-source live coding platform. Powered by Apache SkyWalking, Source++ enhances the software development experience by allowing you to add breakpoints, logs, metrics, and distributed tracing to live production software in real-time on-demand, right from your IDE or CLI.

I'd appreciate any feedback the SkyWalking community can offer. Source++ only works with JVM languages, but Python support should be less than a few weeks away. If you have trouble installing Source++, please make a ticket. I'll improve the documentation.

Live Breakpoint

Live Breakpoints (a.k.a non-breaking breakpoints) are useful debugging instruments for gaining insight into the live variables available in production at a given scope.

Live Log

Live Logs (a.k.a just-in-time logging) are quick and easy debugging instruments for instantly outputting live data from production without redeploying or restarting your application.
