I published Dweav Trace, a privacy-first Chrome extension for tracing JavaScript state
I recently published my Chrome extension, Dweav Trace, and I’d appreciate feedback from other extension users and developers.
Dweav Trace is built for JavaScript developers who want a cleaner way to debug application state without relying only on scattered "console.log()" calls.
Basic usage:
dweav(state, "Cart updated");
The extension opens in the Chrome side panel and gives you a chronological timeline of state snapshots, labels, and structural diffs so you can better understand how your app state changed over time.
Main features:
- State snapshot timeline
- Structural diffing
- Added / removed / changed value tracking
- Offline-first design
- No analytics
- No telemetry
- No external debugging server
- Auto-redaction for sensitive-looking values
- Built-in tools like JSON formatter, JWT decoder, Base64 tools, SHA-256 hashing, UUID generator, URL tools, CRON translator, and clipboard history

I’m especially looking for feedback on the onboarding, side panel layout, trace workflow, and what developer utilities should be added or removed.
