v1.0.0

The first public release of WireTrace.

What it is

A serial data monitor for hardware and embedded engineers. Multi-device, fast, and built so the disk log captures everything regardless of what the on-screen view is doing.

Features in this release

  • Multi-device tabs — connect to multiple serial ports simultaneously, each in its own tab with its own thread, log file, and view state
  • Sustained throughput above 10,000 lines per second on commodity hardware
  • Buffered logging — writes happen on a separate thread; the read path is never blocked; guaranteed flush on shutdown
  • Severity-based message classification — every line tagged as one of CRITICAL, ERROR, WARNING, INFO, DEBUG, COMMAND, or DATA
  • Live filter bar — narrow the on-screen view by substring without affecting what's written to disk
  • Search — forward and backward navigation through captured data
  • Two-mode CSV export — auto-detect (recognises key: value and JSON-shaped lines) or raw two-column
  • Two themes — Studio Light and Midnight Dark
  • Auto-update — checks GitHub Releases for new versions, prompts to install
  • Hex display mode — toggle between text and byte-level views
  • Editable baud rate — pick from common values (2400 to 115200) or type any integer from 50 to 4,000,000

Installation

Click More info → Run anyway to proceed. SmartScreen reputation builds as users install without issue.
