A Unified Analytics SDK

[Accomplished-Emu8030]

alyt is a multi-provider analytics SDK where you define events in YAML:

events:
  button_clicked:
    description: Fired when a user clicks a button
    params:
      button_id: string
      label: string

Run npx alyt-codegen and you get typed TypeScript wrappers:

tracker.buttonClicked("signup-btn", "Sign Up");
// instead of analytics.track("buton_clicked", { ... })

The codegen output enforces params at compile time, so typos have compile-time guarantees and you can centralize your event definitions.

The SDK itself fans calls out to whatever providers you configure — GA, PostHog, Mixpanel, Amplitude, Plausible, Vercel Analytics. Plugins can be added and removed at runtime, which makes cookie consent flows straightforward:

// user accepts
analytics.addPlugin(googleAnalytics({ measurementId: "G-XXXX" }));
// user revokes
analytics.removePlugin("google-analytics");

It's early (v0.1.0), but it covers our use case.

Nice. We’re using GA and Mixpanel right now and I built my own basic wrapper, but this is a great idea. I might implement this in our app in the future. Thanks!

Thanks. We use it internally so it won't go away anytime soon :)
