What is it?

Reactotron is a desktop debugger for React and React Native applications. It lets developers monitor application state, API requests and responses, performance benchmarks, and global errors with source-mapped stack traces, including Redux-Saga stack traces.

The app runs on macOS, Linux and Windows and connects to your project through a dev dependency, so it adds nothing to production builds. Built-in plugins cover Redux, MST, networking via apisauce, Async Storage, MMKV, and image overlays in React Native. It can also dispatch actions, subscribe to state paths, hot swap state, and display console-style messages.

Reactotron is developed by Infinite Red and released under the MIT license.

Key features

  • 01Inspect application state and subscribe to specific state paths.
  • 02Monitor API requests and responses, including apisauce integration.
  • 03Track global errors with source-mapped stack traces, including saga traces.
  • 04Run quick performance benchmarks.
  • 05Dispatch actions and hot swap state for Redux or mobx-state-tree.
  • 06Track Async Storage and MMKV in React Native.

Use cases

  • Debugging Redux state changes and actions in a React web app.
  • Inspecting network traffic and responses in a React Native app.
  • Tracking down unhandled errors and saga failures with readable stack traces.
  • Monitoring Async Storage contents during mobile app development.
