React-bratus: Visualising React Component Hierarchies
Stephan Boersma, Mircea Filip Lungu · 2021
We report on the development of react-bratus, a prototype providing developers with an interactive web-based component hierarchy visualization for React-based projects. We continuously evaluate react-bratus in multiple iterations with junior developers and find that component hierarchy visualizations are a promising tool for helping novice developers reverse engineer React-based applications.
