SWR DevTools

A lightweight, developer-friendly debugging tool for SWR in React applications. Inspect cache data, monitor query status, track mutations, and trigger revalidations — all from a floating panel in your app.

Features

• Cache Inspection — View all active SWR keys and their cached data in real-time
• Query Status — See accurate per-query states: LOADING, REVALIDATING, FRESH, ERROR, or IDLE
• Error Display — Errors are surfaced inline with the full error message
• Mutation Monitoring — Track in-flight mutations with status history (requires middleware)
• Refetch / Invalidate — Trigger revalidation for any query from the panel
• Remove from Cache — Delete individual cache entries on demand
• Draggable Button — Move the floating trigger anywhere on screen
• Resizable Panel — Drag to resize both the panel height and the sidebar width
• Dark UI — Minimal dark-themed interface that stays out of your way

Installation

npm install swr-devtools-community
# or
yarn add swr-devtools-community
# or
pnpm add swr-devtools-community

Usage

Basic

Render <SWRDevTools /> anywhere in your app — typically at the root level, outside your main content.

import { SWRDevTools } from 'swr-devtools-community';

function App() {
  return (
    <>
      <YourAppContent />
      {process.env.NODE_ENV === 'development' && <SWRDevTools />}
    </>
  );
}

With Mutation Tracking

Add swrDevToolsMiddleware to your SWRConfig to enable the Mutations tab.

import { SWRConfig } from 'swr';
import { SWRDevTools, swrDevToolsMiddleware } from 'swr-devtools-community';

function App() {
  return (
    <SWRConfig value={{ use: [swrDevToolsMiddleware] }}>
      <YourAppContent />
      {process.env.NODE_ENV === 'development' && <SWRDevTools />}
    </SWRConfig>
  );
}

FRESH	Green	Data loaded, not currently fetching
ERROR	Red	Last fetch failed
IDLE	Gray	No data, not fetching
