  3. Code-Server

    VS Code in the browser

    Project mention: Zellij: A terminal workspace with batteries included | news.ycombinator.com | 2025-12-05

    Instead you can use https://github.com/coder/code-server, which is really vscode running in your browser. You then get all extensions, etc.

  4. Docusaurus

    Easy to maintain open source documentation websites.

    Project mention: The Ultimate Technical Writing Stack for 2025 | dev.to | 2025-11-22

    If your team prefers everything inside Git  Markdown, versioning, PR reviews, CI/CD Docusaurus is still one of the most dependable options. It does require setup and a bit of discipline, but when it’s configured properly, it’s incredibly powerful. I tend to recommend it for engineering-heavy teams that already live in GitHub.

  5. reactotron

    A desktop app for inspecting your React JS and React Native projects. macOS, Linux, and Windows.

    Project mention: React Native Debugger: Best Tools and How to Use Them | dev.to | 2024-12-30

    Usage: Install Reactotron via npm and follow the setup instructions on the Reactotron GitHub page. Use it to monitor API activity and validate state transitions.

  6. redux-devtools

    DevTools for Redux with hot reloading, action replay, and customizable UI

    Project mention: Must-Know React Native Libraries for Faster Mobile App Development in 2025 🚀 | dev.to | 2025-02-17

    Powerful debugging tools with Redux DevTools.

  7. react-styleguidist

    Isolated React component development environment with a living style guide

  8. cosmos-js

    Sandbox for developing and testing UI components in isolation

  9. Stream

  10. pattern-craft

    Professional-grade background patterns and gradients for your websites and apps. Easily copy and paste into your next project. Crafted with modern CSS and Tailwind for seamless integration.

    Project mention: You Might Not Need Next.js | dev.to | 2025-08-05

    They've reached the free plan limits for server function calls, but, why are function calls needed for a website of this kind? Looking through it, all of the content is static, there's no auth, and in fact, the entire list of patterns is stored in a single typescript file. Seems like there isn't a valid reason to use a server, using Next.js was the default way and they just went with it. Had they used Vite or Next.js's static export, they could've hosted their website for free in a static hosting site like Github Pages or Cloudflare Pages.

  11. Reactime 6.0: State Debugger for React

    Developer tool for time travel debugging and performance monitoring in React applications.

  12. react-inspector

    🔍 Power of Browser DevTools inspectors right inside your React app

  13. BundleMon

    A free open-source tool that helps you to monitor your bundle size on every commit and alerts you on changes.

  14. react-device-frameset

    React device frameset component

    Project mention: Engage Users Instantly: Embed an Interactive Demo in your React SPA | dev.to | 2025-01-09

    Wanna is mobile-first, so I chose to render the demo inside a phone frame. I used devices.css because it offers the devices I thought looked best (i.e. minimal bezel to maximize demo space). But for simplicity, here we'll use a library that supports React out-of-the-box: react-device-frameset.

  15. Jooks (Jest ❤ + Hooks 🤘🏻)

    Testing hooks with Jest

  16. component-controls

    A next-generation tool to create blazing-fast documentation sites.

  17. story-tab

    ⚡ Create demo components in a zap

  18. codebox

    Provisioner of remote development workspaces, mirror of the gitlab repo (by davidebianchi03)

    Project mention: Show HN: Codebox, a Provider of Remote Workspaces | news.ycombinator.com | 2025-11-18
