Description

Reactotron makes it difficult to see all needed information at the same time. I frequently jump from the Timeline tab, looking at log messages and network requests, to viewing the State tab to view MST data. Similarly, the Timeline tab combines log and network data into a single timeline, which can make it difficult to process that data at a glance.

When comparing this to react-native-debugger (RND), RND shows these different data sections as separate windows within the same view. The benefit of this is you can view your store data, your log messages, and your network requests all in an organized and side-by-side method.

I believe Reactotron could benefit from implementing a similar UI, where a developer can see all of the usual information at a glance from a single view with less context switching.
