ClickHouse built and open-sourced otel.fyi, a search-first documentation site for the OpenTelemetry Collector. The site aggregates and normalizes docs from scattered contrib repositories, making it easy to find configuration details for receivers, processors, exporters, and extensions without jumping between GitHub README files. It was originally built internally using Claude to solve the fragmented navigation experience of official OTel Collector docs, and is now publicly available. Future plans include an AI assistant to help guide configuration.
