Trace-Viewer is the javascript frontend for Chrome about:tracing and Android systrace.
It provides rich analysis and visualization capabilities for many types of trace files. Its particularly good at viewing linux kernel traces (aka ftrace) and Chrome's trace_event format. Trace viewer can be embedded as a component in your own code, or used from a plain checkout to turn trace files into standalone, emailable HTML files from the commandline:
$CATAPULT/tracing/bin/trace2html my_trace.json --output=my_trace.html && open my_trace.html
Its easy to extend trace viewer to support your favorite trace format, or add domain specific visualizations to the UI to simplify drilling down into complex data.
We welcome contributions! To hack on this code.
