There's an excellent article on how to implement OpenTelemetry Tracing in 200 lines of code.

"It might help to go over a non-exhaustive list of things the offical SDK handles that our little learning library doesn’t:

- Buffer and batch outgoing telemetry data in a more efficient format. Don’t send one-span-per-http request in production. Your vendor will want to have words."

- Gracefully handle errors, wrap this library around your core functionality at your own peril"

You can solve them of course, if you can
