What is calcite? ================ Calcite is a continuous performance testing platform that helps you track the performance of your applications. Even in for performance software, performance is generally an after thought or fixed late when a user says the software is too slow. While we benefited from better and better hardware in the last decades, concerns about application performance are being raised again. From IoT and mobile phones that require low power consumptions to servers that need to deliver information faster and at bigger scale, we believe now more than ever performance needs to be part of your software development cycle. That is why we advocate to track performance with the help of continuous integration tools in addition to the usual profiling and monitoring. Calcite works by aggregating test performance results from your CI and provides notifications when regressions are detected. If performance is at the heart of your project, then calcite is made for you! Give it a try now by following the :doc:`/usage/gettingstarted` tutorial!
