Yes, we are building libraries and with that comes much responsibility. But in the end, we build a product that should solve a problem users have in their application. This principle relates to many other things mentioned on this page - but most importantly, it should act as a reminder that we only succeed if we manage to solve a problem end-to-end. + +## Write less code + +Only do in SDKs what can only be done in SDKs. Data quality is one of the most important things. Without it, we can't build a great product experience. The purpose of the SDK is to instrument the user's application, collect context around the event type we want to capture, and send it to Sentry. Any extensive business logic that does changes to the data should be avoided; the data should be sent as raw as possible. Business logic in SDKs is complex, hard to maintain and even harder to change, we have way more flexibility on the server.
