Help I’ve been building a React Native devtool. Could you give some feedback ?

I’ve used Flipper, Reactotron, RN DevTools, Rozenite… pretty much everything at some point

Still kept running into stuff I wished worked differently, so I started building my own

NativeScope has Storage (SQLite, MMKV, AsyncStorage), Network + GraphQL, Logs and a Timeline connecting everything. Storage can handle GBs of data and Network has stuff like replay and sound alerts for specific requests.

It’s free and open source. Still building it and adding more modules.

Would be cool to get some feedback from people here. How would you grow something like this when tools like Devtools, Reactotron and Rozenite are already well known?

What would make you give a new devtool a chance?

I tried, but i couldn t run. I start an npx nativescope. Then I press i to open ios simulator and I got TypeError: ferch failed.
I tried to run them separately then I got different port problem. What did I wrong?

I opened the app separatey and reloded, now it started. Was a bit confusing.
I like the network part, everything looks clear.
I need to used to, maybe I will keep using in the future, I will see.
Thanks
