Let’s start with things we already know - complex projects are inherently hard to debug. The more complicated they are, the harder it is to debug them. The size of the project naturally defines complexity’s lower bounds, but even the smallest projects can become unnecessarily complex and messy if you don’t pay attention to how you structure them. Though we can’t eliminate complexity, we can manage it effectively with the right approach.

In this guide, you’ll gather how to identify and solve the most common bugs and performance issues. We’ll cover debugging client-side React, if you have a React app that uses server-side rendering, you can also look at our Node.js debugging guide or on-demand workshop. In the below sections you’ll learn.

It’s a bold claim for me to say that every developer can benefit from something 40% of them haven’t heard of, but hear me out. I was among the 40% who didn’t know tracing existed until this summer. Still, I spent the last three months learning why it’s critical to a developer’s workflow and the different ways developers pragmatically use it. In this blog, I hope to show you that you can benefit from tracing regardless of your stack, role, size, or project.

Debugging Android apps has its unique challenges with crashes, ANRs, and inconsistent logs. But there are some easy ways to quickly identify and resolve issues, ensuring better performance and user experience. In this blog, we’ll explore basic tools and techniques to streamline Android debugging, talk about ANRs, and then go deeper with how Sentry can track errors and provide insights to help you prevent future issues.
