# OpenTelemetry .NET
Hands-on demo project for .NET developers exploring [OpenTelemetry](https://opentelemetry.io/), presented during my lecture at **WTADS/WINFO**.
This project demonstrates how to collect and visualize **distributed traces**, **metrics**, and **logs** using .NET 8 and OpenTelemetry — integrated with **Grafana**, **Prometheus**, **Tempo**, and **Loki**.
---
## Stack
- .NET 8 – ASP.NET Core Web API
- OpenTelemetry – Tracing, Metrics, Logging
- Grafana – Unified Observability Dashboard
- Prometheus – Metrics backend
- Tempo – Trace backend
- Loki – Log backend
- Docker + Docker Compose – Environment orchestration
---
## How to Run Locally
### Prerequisites
- Docker & Docker Compose
- `make` installed
### Start the environment
```bash
make up
```
## Explore Observability with Grafana
After hitting some endpoints, visit Grafana at: http://localhost:3000
Use the preconfigured dashboards to explore:
## Metrics (via Prometheus)
## Traces (via Tempo)
## Logs (via Loki)
## How to Stop and Clean Up
To stop all containers, remove volumes and orphans:
```
make down
```
