Recoilize is a Chrome Dev Tool meant for debugging applications built with the experimental Recoil.js state management library.
The tool records Recoil state and allows users to easily debug their applications with features such as time travel to previous states, visualization of the component graph and display of the atom selector network.

Please note that Recoilize is in BETA. We will continue to make improvements and implement fixes but if you find any issues, please dont hesitate to report them in the issues tab or submit a PR and we'll happily take a look.
npm install recoilize
import RecoilizeDebugger from 'recoilize';
import RecoilizeDebugger from 'recoilize';
import RecoilRoot from 'recoil';
ReactDOM.render(
<RecoilRoot>
<RecoilizeDebugger/>
<App />
</RecoilRoot>,
document.getElementById('root'),
);
Please note, Recoilize assumes that the HTML element used to inject your React application has an ID of 'root'. If it does not the HTML element must be passed in as an attribute called 'root' to the RecoilizeDebugger component
import RecoilizeDebugger from 'recoilize';
import RecoilRoot from 'recoil';
//If your app injects on an element with ID of 'app'
const app = document.getElementById('app');
ReactDOM.render(
<RecoilRoot>
<RecoilizeDebugger root={app} />
<App />
</RecoilRoot>,
app,
);
Recoilize now supports the most recent update to the Recoil library.
Recoilize nolonger requires atoms and selectors or the root HTML element to be passed into the RecoilizeDebugger React component. Simply import RecoilizeDubugger and integrate it within your app's RecoilRoot component.
Additonal functionality has been added for apps that utilize React's Suspense component. If a Suspense component was used to suspend component renderings those components will display with a red border in the component graph. This indicates that a component was suspended during the render of the selected snapshot.
A new tab, 'Metrics', has been incorperated into the dev tool. In this tab the user will find two graphs which display component render times.
The flame graph displays the time a component took to render itself, and all of its child components. The bar graph displays the individual render times of each component.
As one of the key features of Recoilize, the tool enables users to jump to any previous snapshots. Pressing the jump button next to each of the snapshots will change the DOM by setting the state to that snapshot.
Users are able to view visualizations for their application's state by clicking individual snapshots. Recoilize provides component trees and graphs, as well as the state trees in JSON format.
In the settings tab, users are able to set throttle (in milliseconds) for large scale applications or any applications that changes state rapidly. The default is set at 70ms.
Recoilize allows the users to persist their application's state through a refresh or reload. At this time, the user is able to view the previous states in the dev tool, but cannot time travel to the states before refresh. The team is still working on completing this feature.
- component graph hover to view atoms and selectors
- legend to see relationship between component graph and state
- Toggle to view raw component graph
- filter atom/selector network relationship
- filter snapshots by atom/selector keys
