304## 4.0.0 (August 15, 2019)
305
306### General changes
307
308#### Improved performance
309The legacy DevTools extension used to add significant performance overhead, making it unusable for some larger React applications. That overhead has been effectively eliminated in version 4.
310
311[Learn more](https://github.com/facebook/react/blob/master/packages/react-devtools/OVERVIEW.md) about the performance optimizations that made this possible.
312
313#### Component stacks
314
315React component authors have often requested a way to log warnings that include the React ["component stack"](https://reactjs.org/docs/error-boundaries.html#component-stack-traces). DevTools now provides an option to automatically append this information to warnings (`console.warn`) and errors (`console.error`).
316
317![Example console warning with component stack added](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/29597/62228120-eec3da80-b371-11e9-81bb-018c1e577389.png)
318
319It can be disabled in the general settings panel:
320
321![Settings panel showing "component stacks" option](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/29597/62227882-8f65ca80-b371-11e9-8a4e-5d27011ad1aa.png)
322
323### Components tree changes
324
325#### Component filters
326
327Large component trees can sometimes be hard to navigate. DevTools now provides a way to filter components so that you can hide ones you're not interested in seeing.
328
329![Component filter demo video](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/29597/62229209-0bf9a880-b374-11e9-8f84-cebd6c1a016b.gif)
330
331Host nodes (e.g. HTML `<div>`, React Native `View`) are now hidden by default, but you can see them by disabling that filter.
332
333Filter preferences are remembered between sessions.
334
335#### No more inline props
336
337Components in the tree no longer show inline props. This was done to [make DevTools faster](https://github.com/facebook/react/blob/master/packages/react-devtools/OVERVIEW.md) and to make it easier to browse larger component trees.
338
339You can view a component's props, state, and hooks by selecting it:
340
341![Inspecting props](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/29597/62303001-37da6400-b430-11e9-87fd-10a94df88efa.png)
342
343#### "Rendered by" list
344
345In React, an element's "owner" refers to the thing that rendered it. Sometimes an element's parent is also its owner, but usually they're different. This distinction is important because props come from owners.
346
347![Example code](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/29597/62229551-bbcf1600-b374-11e9-8411-8ff411f4f847.png)
348
349When you are debugging an unexpected prop value, you can save time if you skip over the parents.
350
351DevTools v4 adds a new "rendered by" list in the right hand pane that allows you to quickly step through the list of owners to speed up your debugging.
352
353![Example video showing the "rendered by" list](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/29597/62229747-4152c600-b375-11e9-9930-3f6b3b92be7a.gif)
354
355#### Owners tree
356
357The inverse of the "rendered by" list is called the "owners tree". It is the list of things rendered by a particular component- (the things it "owns"). This view is kind of like looking at the source of the component's render method, and can be a helpful way to explore large, unfamiliar React applications.
358
359Double click a component to view the owners tree and click the "x" button to return to the full component tree:
360
361![Demo showing "owners tree" feature](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/29597/62229452-84f90000-b374-11e9-818a-61eec6be0bb4.gif)
362
363#### No more horizontal scrolling
364
365Deeply nested components used to require both vertical and horizontal scrolling to see, making it easy to "get lost" within large component trees. DevTools now dynamically adjusts nesting indentation to eliminate horizontal scrolling.
366
367![Video demonstration dynamic indentation to eliminate horizontal scrolling](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/29597/62246661-f8ad0400-b398-11e9-885f-284f150a6d76.gif)
368
369#### Improved hooks support
370
371Hooks now have the same level of support as props and state: values can be edited, arrays and objects can be drilled into, etc.
372
373![Video demonstrating hooks support](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/29597/62230532-d86c4d80-b376-11e9-8629-1b2129b210d6.gif)
374
375#### Improved search UX
376
377Legacy DevTools search filtered the components tree to show matching nodes as roots. This made the overall structure of the application harder to reason about, because it displayed ancestors as siblings.
378
379Search results are now shown inline similar to the browser's find-in-page search.
380
381![Video demonstrating the search UX](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/29597/62230923-c63edf00-b377-11e9-9f95-aa62ddc8f62c.gif)
382
383#### Higher order components
384
385[Higher order components](https://reactjs.org/docs/higher-order-components.html) (or HOCs) often provide a [custom `displayName`](https://reactjs.org/docs/higher-order-components.html#convention-wrap-the-display-name-for-easy-debugging) following a convention of `withHOC(InnerComponentName)` in order to make it easier to identify components in React warnings and in DevTools.
386
387The new Components tree formats these HOC names (along with several built-in utilities like `React.memo` and `React.forwardRef`) as a special badge to the right of the decorated component name.
388
389![Screenshot showing HOC badges](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/29597/62302774-c4385700-b42f-11e9-9ef4-49c5f18d6276.png)
390
391Components decorated with multiple HOCs show the topmost badge and a count. Selecting the component shows all of the HOCs badges in the properties panel.
392
393![Screenshot showing a component with multiple HOC badges](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/29597/62303729-7fadbb00-b431-11e9-8685-45f5ab52b30b.png)
394
395#### Restoring selection between reloads
396
397DevTools now attempts to restore the previously selected element when you reload the page.
398
399![Video demonstrating selection persistence](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/810438/63130054-2c02ac00-bfb1-11e9-92fa-382e9e433638.gif)
400
401#### Suspense toggle
402
403React's experimental [Suspense API](https://reactjs.org/docs/react-api.html#suspense) lets components "wait" for something before rendering. `<Suspense>` components can be used to specify loading states when components deeper in the tree are waiting to render.
404
405DevTools lets you test these loading states with a new toggle:
406
407![Video demonstrating suspense toggle UI](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/29597/62231446-e15e1e80-b378-11e9-92d4-086751dc65fc.gif)
408
409### Profiler changes
410
411#### Reload and profile
412
413The profiler is a powerful tool for performance tuning React components. Legacy DevTools supported profiling, but only after it detected a profiling-capable version of React. Because of this there was no way to profile the initial _mount_ (one of the most performance sensitive parts) of an application.
414
415This feature is now supported with a "reload and profile" action:
416
417![Video demonstrating the reload-and-profile feature](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/29597/62233455-7a8f3400-b37d-11e9-9563-ec334bfb2572.gif)
418
419#### Import/export
420
421Profiler data can now be exported and shared with other developers to enable easier collaboration.
422
423![Video demonstrating exporting and importing profiler data](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/29597/62233911-6566d500-b37e-11e9-9052-692378c92538.gif)
424
425Exports include all commits, timings, interactions, etc.
426
427#### "Why did this render?"
428
429"Why did this render?" is a common question when profiling. The profiler now helps answer this question by recording which props and state change between renders.
430
431![Video demonstrating profiler "why did this render?" feature](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/29597/62234698-0f932c80-b380-11e9-8cf3-a5183af0c388.gif)
432
433Because this feature adds a small amount of overhead, it can be disabled in the profiler settings panel.
434
435#### Component renders list
436
437The profiler now displays a list of each time the selected component rendered during a profiling session, along with the duration of each render. This list can be used to quickly jump between commits when analyzing the performance of a specific component.
438
439![Video demonstrating profiler's component renders list](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/29597/62234547-bcb97500-b37f-11e9-9615-54fba8b574b9.gif)
