react-router-devtools is an open-source package designed to enhance your development workflow when working with React Router v7+, a full-stack JavaScript framework for building web applications. This package provides a user-friendly interface consisting of three tabs, Active Page, Terminal, Settings, Errors, Network and Routes, along with a side tab called Timeline. With react-router-devtools, you can efficiently monitor and manage various aspects of your React Router v7+ projects, including page information, URL parameters, server responses, loader data, routes, and more.

You can also track down hydration issues with the Errors tab and view your routes in a tree/list view with the Routes tab.

Network tab is a powerful tool for tracing all your network requests and see what's happening under the hood. You can see all the requests in real-time, with the ability to see if they are aborted, if they are cached, and if they are successful or not.

This repository used to be called remix-development-tools, but we decided to rename it to react-router-devtools to better reflect the fact that it's a package for React Router v7+ and not just for Remix.

If you're looking for the old version of this package, you can find it here.

Devoted to my loving wife and my little late bird Kiira who helped me initially build out these tools by keeping me company and being my rubber duck, she will forever be my best friend.

In loving memory of my late Grandfather, who taught me to always be curious, never stop learning, and to always be kind to others, and my late Grandmother who always encouraged me to learn new things, and stand up for the things I believe in.
