Offsy — Fast Kafka tailing for devs - Inspect Kafka events without bloat

I built a lightweight desktop app for browsing Kafka topics because I got tired of opening heavy admin dashboards just to inspect a few events. Offsy currently supports live message tailing, JSON inspection, filtering/search and a lightweight desktop workflow for Kafka developers. It’s currently an early access macOS alpha and I’d genuinely love feedback from people working with Kafka regularly.

Hey everyone 👋 I built Offsy because I repeatedly found myself opening large Kafka admin dashboards just to inspect a few messages during development. I wanted something: * lightweight * fast * desktop-focused * simple to use during debugging Offsy is currently an early access macOS alpha focused on: * topic browsing * live message tailing * JSON inspection * filtering/search I’d genuinely love feedback from developers working with Kafka regularly — especially around workflows, missing features or pain points in existing tools. Thanks for checking it out 🙂
