Reactotron is a free, open-source desktop application for debugging React JS and React Native apps, letting developers inspect state, API requests, errors, and performance. It connects to your app as a dev dependency over websockets and is extensible via a plugin system.

Use cases

• inspect React Native app state while debugging
• view API requests and responses from my React app
• track global errors with source-mapped stack traces
• benchmark performance in a React Native project
• hot swap Redux or mobx-state-tree state during development
• debug Async Storage in React Native
• dispatch Redux actions from a desktop debugger

When to choose

• you develop React or React Native apps and want a dedicated GUI debugger
• you use Redux, mobx-state-tree, or redux-saga and need state inspection and time-travel
• you want a dev-only tool that adds nothing to production builds

When to avoid

• you need to debug non-JavaScript or non-React applications
• you only want lightweight CLI-based debugging without a desktop app
• you need production monitoring or crash reporting rather than development debugging
