When I develop iPhone / iPad apps I always use a crash reporting system. My current favorite is Crashlytics - which works great.

For Android apps I've been using the rather more basic ACRA crash reporter.

Now that I'm building a webapp to be run on a client's own server, it seems a good idea to build in some kind of crash reporting system, probably linked off the window.onerror event.

Of course, I could build my own system. But does anyone know a good drop-in solution that sends and collates reports?

Incidentally, I'd prefer a pletely client-side solution (i.e. just JavaScript) rather than anything that requires server support.

Whilst not currently supported by iOS, a number of browser platforms now support the W3C Reporting API which can be useful for reporting of crash and other analytics. For some examples see the MDN page on the Reporting API.
