Flipper
A desktop debugging platform for mobile developers
Flipper is a platform for debugging iOS, Android and React Native apps. Visualize, inspect, and control your apps from a simple desktop interface. Use Flipper as is or extend it using the plugin API. Flipper aims to be your number one companion for mobile app development on iOS and Android. Therefore, we provide a bunch of useful tools including a log viewer, interactive layout inspector, and network inspector. Flipper is built as a platform. In addition to using the tools already included, you can create your own plugins to visualize and debug data from your mobile apps. Flipper takes care of sending data back and forth, calling functions, and listening for events on the mobile app. Both Flipper's desktop app and native mobile SDKs are open-source and MIT licensed. This enables you to see and understand how we are building plugins, and of course join the community and help improve Flipper. We are excited to see what you will build on this platform. -

q Go
Quick and dirty debugging output for tired Go programmers
q is a better way to do print statement debugging. For best results, dedicate a terminal to tailing $TMPDIR/q while you work. You also can simply tail -f $TMPDIR/q, but it's highly recommended to use the provided commands. Type q.Q instead of fmt.Printf and your variables will be printed like the provided example. Faster to type, pretty-printed vars and expressions. Easier to see inside structs, doesn't go to noisy-ass stdout. It goes to $TMPDIR/q. q Go offers pretty colors! -

HTTP Toolkit
Electron wrapper to build and distribute HTTP Toolkit
HTTP Toolkit Desktop is an open-source application that packages HTTP Toolkit into a standalone debugging environment for Windows, macOS, and Linux. It uses Electron to combine the application's graphical interface with its underlying Node.js server. The software enables developers to intercept, inspect, and modify HTTP and HTTPS traffic from browsers, applications, and development environments. Users can analyze requests and responses, examine headers, and inspect structured message bodies. It supports interactive request editing, debugging breakpoints, and custom API requests. The desktop application automatically launches its background server and manages its lifecycle. With traffic interception and testing tools in one interface, HTTP Toolkit helps developers troubleshoot network communication and investigate application behavior. -

scanmem & GameConqueror
memory scanner for Linux
scanmem is a debugging utility designed to isolate the address of an arbitrary variable in an executing process. scanmem simply needs to be told the pid of the process and the value of the variable at several different times. After several scans of the process, scanmem isolates the position of the variable and allows you to modify its value. -

SpoofMAC
Change your MAC address for debugging
SpoofMAC is a command-line utility for changing and restoring MAC addresses on network interfaces in Linux and macOS systems. The project allows users to randomize or manually configure MAC addresses to improve privacy, testing flexibility, or network anonymity in various environments. It automates low-level networking commands and provides a user-friendly interface for managing interface states and address changes safely. SpoofMAC is commonly used for privacy protection on public networks, penetration testing workflows, and network simulation environments where MAC address manipulation is required. The tool also supports restoring the original hardware MAC address and handling multiple network interfaces efficiently. Its lightweight design and straightforward command-line usage make it popular among system administrators, developers, and security researchers. -

chrome-remote-interface
Chrome Debugging Protocol interface for Node.js
chrome-remote-interface is a Node.js library that provides a convenient interface for interacting with the Chrome DevTools Protocol, allowing developers to control and instrument Chromium-based browsers programmatically. The project exposes browser debugging and automation capabilities through a straightforward JavaScript API that abstracts the underlying DevTools protocol commands and events. By connecting to a running browser instance with remote debugging enabled, developers can inspect network activity, manipulate pages, capture screenshots, automate navigation, and analyze performance metrics. The library is commonly used for building browser automation scripts, testing tools, web scraping systems, and custom developer tooling that interacts directly with Chrome internals. Unlike higher-level tools such as Puppeteer, Chrome Remote Interface focuses on exposing the raw protocol in a more flexible and transparent way. -

rr
Record and Replay Framework
rr aspires to be your primary C/C++ debugging tool for Linux, replacing — well, enhancing — gdb. You record a failure once, then debug the recording, deterministically, as many times as you want. The same execution is replayed every time. rr also provides efficient reverse execution under gdb. Set breakpoints and data watchpoints and quickly reverse-execute to where they were hit. rr works on real applications and is used by many developers to fix real bugs. It makes debugging hard bugs much easier, but also speeds up debugging of easy bugs. -
