### Structured telemetry library for Clojure/Script
> This library is **still under development**!!
> This library is still under development, ETA: [April 2024](https://www.taoensso.com/roadmap).
**Telemere** is an [**upcoming**](https://www.taoensso.com/roadmap) next-generation observability toolkit for **capturing all kinds of un/structured information** in your running Clojure and ClojureScript programs.
**Telemere** handles **traditional and structured logging**, **tracing**, and **performance measurement** with one clean, simple, unified API.
It offers a **simple, clean, unified API** that covers: **logging**, **events**, **performance measurement**, **tracing**, etc.
Taking full advantage of Clojure's unique **macro and interop** capabilities, Telemere represents the **refinement and culmination** of ideas brewing for 10+ years in [Timbre](https://www.taoensso.com/timbre), [Tufte](https://www.taoensso.com/tufte), [Truss](https://www.taoensso.com/truss), etc.
It's a next-generation **observability toolkit** and modern replacement for [Timbre](https://www.taoensso.com/timbre), representing the refinement and culmination of ideas brewing over Timbre's 12+ years in a wide variety of real-world Clojure/Script environments.

## Why Telemere?
#### Usability
- Simple, lightweight API that's **easy to use**, **easy to configure**, and **deeply flexible**.
- An **unmatched logging experience** designed to **scale comfortably** from the smallest disposable code, to the most massive production applications.
- **Easy integration** with the **tooling of your choice**, including first-class **out-the-box interop** with [OpenTelemetry](https://opentelemetry.io/), [SLF4J v2](https://www.slf4j.org/), [clojure.tools.logging](https://github.com/clojure/tools.logging), and [Tufte](https://www.taoensso.com/tufte).
- Hyper-optimized and **blazing fast**, see [performance](#performance).
- **Sensible defaults** to make getting started **fast and easy**.
- Extensive **beginner-oriented** [documentation][GitHub wiki] and [docstrings][clj-doc docs].
#### Interop
- First-class **out-the-box interop** with [OpenTelemetry](https://opentelemetry.io/), [SLF4J v2](https://www.slf4j.org/), [clojure.tools.logging](https://github.com/clojure/tools.logging), and [Tufte](https://www.taoensso.com/tufte).
- Included shim for easy/gradual [migration from Timbre](/TODO).
#### Performance
- Hyper-optimized and **blazing fast**, see [benchmarks](#performance).
- **Scales comfortably** from the smallest disposable code, to the most massive and complex production environments.
#### Flexibility
- Config via plain **Clojure vals and fns** for easy customization, composition, and REPL debug.
- Top-notch support for **environmental config** (JVM props, ENV vars, edn resources, etc.).
- Expressive **per-call** and **per-handler** filtering at both **runtime** and **compile-time**.
- Easily filter by namespace and id pattern, level, **level by namespace pattern**, etc.
- Support for auto **sampling**, **rate-limiting**, and **back-pressure monitoring**.
- Support for **fully configurable a/sync dispatch** (blocking, dropping, sliding, etc.).
- **Sensible defaults** to make getting started **fast and easy**.
- Extensive **beginner-oriented** [documentation](#documentation), docstrings, examples, etc.
