React Developer Tools vs Redux DevTools

Side-by-Side Comparison

Which Should You Choose?

React Developer Tools is the better-rated and more widely reviewed of the two, and the two solve different problems anyway.

React Developer Tools rates 4.8 stars across 1,375 reviews, well ahead of Redux DevTools' 3.4 stars across 556 reviews. They aren't direct competitors so much as complementary tools — React Developer Tools adds React-specific component and props debugging to Chrome DevTools, while Redux DevTools focuses specifically on tracking state changes in apps using Redux. If your app uses Redux, you'll likely want both installed together rather than choosing one over the other.
