What is Waydev?
Waydev is an open-source, browser-based IDE specifically designed for developing and debugging modern web applications built with frameworks like React, Angular and Vue.js. It aims to improve developer workflows by providing a local emulated environment that accurately replicates production scenarios.
Some key features and benefits of Waydev include:
- Live component inspector - Visually select any component in your app and inspect its props, state, hooks, events etc.
- Powerful state management - Track state changes, travel back in time, import/export state snapshots.
- Network mocking - Easily mock REST API endpoints, websockets, create advanced mocks.
- Integrated browser and terminals - Code, test and debug without context switching between multiple tools.
- Hot module replacement - Auto reflects code changes without losing component state.
- Server-side rendering - Render components on the server to debug routing and pre-rendering.
- Production emulation - Simulate things like bundles, minification, CSS modules etc.
- CLI integration - Integrates with existing workflows based on webpack, Vite, Parcel etc.
With its emphasis on replicating production environments and advanced debugging capabilities tailored for modern web apps, Waydev aims to boost developer productivity by allowing faster iterate and test cycles.
