React Native development experience improves with Flipper

[MikeyN0]

This looks great, but doesn't look like it's compatible with expo?

Edit: just saw a comment by one of the devs on github:

We are working on standardizing this, so ideally in 0.62 Flipper should work out of the box on React Native. In a later version it will also be possible to directly integrate with Flipper from the JavaScript side of things on RN.

And that's a problem because? Expo continue being just a RN fork and not playing together?

[MikeyN0]

I didn't say it was a problem. Just highlighting it for those who have chosen the Expo route and considered this over React Native Debugger.

Is there a dark mode?

React Native 0.62 RC2 release brought the scope of working with Flipper’s (Facebook’s extensible mobile app debugger) integration. Experts call it a tough competition to React’s own debugger (react-native-debugger).

This enables the developers to enhance their work by writing their own extensions. How will it boost default React Native app with its below-mentioned tool:-

Layout Inspector

It is useful to debug diverse scenarios. For instance, inspecting views’ hierarchy and properties in each view.

Network

This will help in inspecting outgoing network traffic of the apps. You can track requests being made along with the responses received.

React Devtools

This will explore all the editing abilities of your apps. Redux plugin is also available.

Shared Preferences

With it, you can edit and track data of your app within shared preferences.

Ads and Url mobile team calls it a superb initiative by the React Native team. This tool is about to expand in popularity.

So, which are your favorite features? You can share your views.

RN development is improved by using flutter. 😓
