Support analytics

Analytics is surely something you can't ignore when building any size of applications. Redwood could utilize other good analytics libraries under the hood, like:

• https://github.com/cube-js/cube.js
• https://getanalytics.io

or may be implementing it's own.

the problem with suggested libraries, is the deployment part. since redwood is planning to go full JAMstack.

We like Netlify Analytics because it a) doesn't creepily track users across sites and b) should be more accurate than browser/javascript-based tracking since it's implemented on the server-side and isn't subject to ad/script blocking.

Yep, can highly recommend Netlify Analytics for general Redwood site analytics. It gives useful overall stats without any privacy issues:
