How we can get a better debugging experience? When I was trying to develop some React Native apps and has an error, the stack trace were so confusing. There is a way to have a great debugging session with breakpoints, watches... and don't need to keep changing our code until it works?

I guess it depends where the error sits, some errors are hard to debug yes , either errors in the render markup itself or in native modules.

However I would say apart from that it's pretty much like debugging any web app in chrome with watches and other stuff you mention. I'd even go as far as to say developing with hot reloading is better than the react/webpack equivalent.
