Vonsole, a Vercel deployment monitoring menu bar app

As someone who works on 20+ Vercel projects I frequently find myself on the Vercel home page. The problem is for each Vercel project has 5 sub pages you realistically want to visit while building it:

  1. Deployments, a list of deployments to see successful and failing builds
  2. Analytics, for event tracking
  3. Speed insights, to manage your performance
  4. Logs, to debug issues
  5. Settings > Environment variables, to edit them

So if you're working on 3 Vercel projects that's now 15 links you can't fit on your bookmarks bar. Going to each page normally takes at least 3 clicks and a type. So I built a Mac menu bar app that gets this down to only 2 clicks.

I understand that this is an incredibly tiny problem which is exactly why I built this over-engineered solution.

If you feel similarly, you can sign up at vonsole.dev

I'll most likely email you once when I release it. It will most likely be open-source.
