React Sight

React Sight is a live view of the component hierarchy tree of your React application with support for React Router and Redux.

We are currently working on squashing bugs related to fiber

Set Up | Install From Chrome Store

1. Make sure you've added React Dev Tools to Chrome.

2. Install React Sight from the Chrome web store

3. If you are running local file URLs, make sure to enable "Allow access to file URLs" in the extension settings for both React Dev Tools and React Sight

4. Run your React application, or open (almost!) any website running React!

5. Open Chrome Developer Tools (cmd+opt+j) -> React Sight panel

Building Your Own Version

If you'd like to build your own version of React Sight:

1. Clone the repo and npm install dependancies

2. Use npm start to generate the build

3. In Chrome, open the extensions tab and click 'Load Unpacked Extension'. Load the folder '~/ReactSight/chrome-ext'

If you have any additional questions send us a message at reactsight@gmail.com :)

Usage

Hover over nodes to see their state and props in the side panel.

Hide DOM elements, Redux components, and Router components with the built in filters, so that you can focus only on the components you've written

Zoom in by double clicking, and zoom out by shift + double clicking (mousewheel zoom coming soon!)

Why?

We built React Sight because there are no tools on the market that give you a visual representation of the structure of your App. When we were developing our own projects, we wished we had a way to see how everything was structured.

We wanted React Sight to be simple to use, which is why all you have to do is install a Chrome extension. No modifying your existing code!
