How to use Redux DevTools to debug async actions in a React app

Question

Can you tell me How to use Redux DevTools to debug async actions in a React app?

Answer 1

To use Redux DevTools to debug async actions in a React app:

Install Redux DevTools Extension in your browser (Chrome/Firefox).

Configure Store with DevTools:

import { configureStore } from '@reduxjs/toolkit';

import { composeWithDevTools } from 'redux-devtools-extension';

import thunk from 'redux-thunk';

import rootReducer from './reducers';

const store = createStore(rootReducer, composeWithDevTools(applyMiddleware(thunk)));

Dispatch Async Actions (e.g., via redux-thunk or redux-saga). Redux DevTools will log each action (REQUEST, SUCCESS, FAILURE) and state change.

Use DevTools Features:

Time Travel: Inspect past states.

Action Trace: View action payloads and types.

State Tree: See how async actions modify state in real-time.
