Hi there! You’ve found Honeybadger’s guide to Python error tracking, performance monitoring, and observability. Once installed, Honeybadger will automatically report errors and telemetry in your Python application.

## How you should read the docs

* If you’re installing Honeybadger in your application for the first time, start with our **Integrations Guides** for **[Django](https://docs.honeybadger.io/lib/python/integrations/django/)**, **[Flask](https://docs.honeybadger.io/lib/python/integrations/flask/)**, and **[other frameworks](https://docs.honeybadger.io/lib/python/integrations/other/)**.
* The **How-To Guides** (in the left-hand navigation menu) are general guides on how to do things with the library, and should apply to all types of applications.
* There is a wealth of additional knowledge about Honeybadger in the **Package Reference** and **Support** sections.
