shadowsocks-libev
Bug-fix-only libev port of shadowsocks
Shadowsocks-libev is a lightweight secured SOCKS5 proxy for embedded devices and low-end boxes. Shadowsocks-libev is written in pure C and depends on libev. It's designed to be a lightweight implementation of shadowsocks protocol, in order to keep the resource usage as low as possible. Snap is the recommended way to install the latest binaries. You can build shadowsocks-libev and all its dependencies by script. The latest shadowsocks-libev has provided a redir mode. You can configure your Linux-based box or router to proxy all TCP traffic transparently, which is handy if you use an OpenWRT-powered router. Although shadowsocks-libev can handle thousands of concurrent connections nicely, we still recommend setting up your server's firewall rules to limit connections from each user. We strongly encourage you to install shadowsocks-libev from jessie-backports-sloppy. -

iOS WebKit Debug Proxy
A DevTools proxy for iOS devices
The ios_webkit_debug_proxy (aka iwdp) proxies requests from usbmuxd daemon over a websocket connection, allowing developers to send commands to MobileSafari and UIWebViews on real and simulated iOS devices. iOS WebKit Debug Proxy works on Linux, MacOS & Windows. The iOS Simulator is supported, but it must be started before the proxy. The simulator can be started in XCode, standalone, or via the command line. ios_webkit_debug_proxy can be used with many tools such as Chrome DevTools and Safari Web Inspector. To use Chrome DevTools it's the recommendation to use the RemoteDebug/remotedebug-ios-webkit-adapter project, which has instructions on how to setup Chrome to remote debug iOS devices, much similar to Android debugging. You can use Safari Web Inspector extracted from Webkit sources, e.g. artygus/webkit-webinspector. Another option is mozilla/valence which enables Firefox DevTools to be used with iOS. -

LeakCanary
A memory leak detection library for Android
LeakCanary is a reliable memory leak detection library for Android. It effectively detects leaks and narrows down the cause of each leak through its in-depth knowledge of the internals of the Android Framework. This helps developers avoid and dramatically reduce OutOfMemoryError (OOM) crashes. A memory leak is a programming error that can cause an OutOfMemoryError crash. It’s often caused by bugs related to the lifecycle of objects, and can occur fairly often in Android applications. LeakCanary helps to find and fix those leaks during development so you never have to experience another OOM crash. -

Chisel
A collection of LLDB commands to assist debugging iOS apps
Chisel is a collection of LLDB commands designed to assist you in the process of debugging iOS apps. All of the commands provided by Chisel come with verbose help. Be sure to read it when in doubt! You can add local, custom commands. There's also builtin support to make it super easy to specify the arguments and options that a command takes. See the border and pinvocation commands for example use. Developing commands, whether for local use or contributing to Chisel directly, both follow the same workflow. You can also inspect a specific command by passing its name as an argument to the help command (as with all other LLDB commands). There are many commands with compatibility with iOS/Mac. For a comprehensive overview of LLDB, and how Chisel complements it, read Ari Grant's Dancing in the Debugger, A Waltz with LLDB in issue 19 of objc.io. -

FLEX (Flipboard Explorer)
An in-app debugging and exploration tool for iOS
FLEX (Flipboard Explorer) is a set of in-app debugging and exploration tools for iOS development. When presented, FLEX shows a toolbar that lives in a window above your application. From this toolbar, you can view and modify nearly every piece of state in your running application. Access any live object via a scan of the heap. View the file system within your app's sandbox. Browse SQLite/Realm databases in the file system. Trigger 3D touch in the simulator using the control, shift, and command keys. Explore all classes in your app and linked systems frameworks (public and private). Unlike many other debugging tools, FLEX runs entirely inside your app, so you don't need to be connected to LLDB/Xcode or a different remote debugging server. It works well in the simulator and on physical devices. -

ACRA
Application crash reports for Android
ACRA is a library enabling Android applications to automatically post their crash reports to a report server. It is targeted to android applications developers to help them get data from their applications when they crash or behave erroneously. A crash reporting feature for android apps is native since Android 2.2 (FroYo) but only available through the official Android Market (and with limited data). ACRA is a great help for Android developers. ACRA's notification systems are clean. If a crash occurs, your application does not add user notifications over existing system's crash notifications or reporting features. By default, the "force close" dialog is not displayed anymore, to enable it set alsoReportToAndroidFramework to true. The user is notified of an error only once, and you might enhance the perceived quality of your application by defining your own texts in the notifications/dialogs. -

Android Debug Database
A library for debugging android databases and shared preferences
Android Debug Database allows you to view databases and shared preferences directly in your browser in a very simple way. Android Debug Database is a powerful library for debugging databases and shared preferences in Android applications. Delete database rows and shared preferences. Search in your data. Sort data. Download database. Debug Room inMemory database. As this library is auto-initialize, if you want to get the address log, add the following method and call (we have to do like this to avoid build error in release build as this library will not be included in the release build) using reflection. Using the Android Debug Database with an encrypted database. See all the data in the shared preferences used in your application. Run any sql query on the given database to update and delete your data. -

Bagel
A little native network debugging tool for iOS
Bagel is a little native iOS network debugger. It's not a proxy debugger so you don't have to mess around with certificates, proxy settings etc. As long as your iOS devices and your Mac are in the same network, you can view the network traffic of your apps separated by the devices or simulators. Most basic usage is to start Bagel iOS before any network operation. Since Bagel exposes every request info to the public it would be better if you disable it for the store versions. By default, Bagel gets your project name and device information. The desktop client uses this information to separate projects and devices. You can configure these if you wish. Bagel framework communicates with the desktop client by using Bonjour protocol. You can also configure these Netservice parameters. -

HTML Onlive Debugger
Realtime preview for designers and developers.
When I got my first Android tablet; I realized how much web design and development were such a tedious process for a large majority of tablet and smart phone users. I found no applications available in Google Play that enabled live code debugging which gave me the incentive to develop one myself. After purchasing Google's developer fee, as well as AIDE I then released on Google Play for all to use. -

HeapInspector
Find memory issues & leaks in your iOS app without instruments
HeapInspector is a debug tool that monitors the memory heap with backtrace recording in your iOS app. You can discover memory leaks, no longer used objects, abandoned memory and more issues directly on your device without ever starting Instruments. Basically, you can inspect the entire heap and see all living objects of your iOS app. To be more precise you can record the heap for a specific part of the app. For instance when navigating through the menu. Like in Apple's Instruments the snapshot compares the heap before you started recording. For instance you can start the snapshot before you push a new UIViewController onto your UINavigationController stack and stop after popping the UIViewController. -
24
InAppViewDebugger
A UIView debugger (like Reveal or Xcode) that can be embedded
InAppViewDebugger is a library that implements a view debugger with a 3D snapshot view and a hierarchy view, similar to Reveal and Xcode's own view debugger. The key distinction is, as the project title suggests, that this can be embedded inside the app and used on-device to debug UI issues without needing to be tethered to a computer. 3D snapshot view implemented in SceneKit: Gesture controls for zooming, panning, and rotating. Hierarchy (tree) view that synchronizes its selection with the 3D view: This is a feature I really wanted in Xcode, to be able to visually find a view and see where it is in the hierarchy view. Support for iPad and iPhone: Layouts are designed specifically for each form factor. Extensible: The base implementation supports UIView hierarchies, but this is easily extensible to support any kind of UI framework (e.g. CoreAnimation or SpriteKit) -
