Answer 1

To monitor React events while debugging, here are the best approaches:

1. Use console.log for Quick Debugging

You can log event objects inside event handlers to inspect them.

<button onClick={(e) => console.log("Button clicked!", e)}>Click Me</button>

2. React Developer Tools (React DevTools)

React DevTools is the best tool for debugging events and state updates.

Steps to Use:

Install the React DevTools Extension

Open Developer Tools (F12 or Ctrl+Shift+I)

Go to the "Components" tab

Select a component and inspect its props, state, and event handlers

Use the Profiler to analyze renders and performance

3. Monitor Events in Chrome DevTools

Use Event Listeners in Chrome DevTools:

Open DevTools (F12 or Ctrl+Shift+I)

Go to the Elements tab

Click "Event Listeners" in the right panel

Expand and inspect registered event handlers for React elements
