Summary: If there server disconnects, we used to show a red box message on the lower left section of the screen. It didn't say much other than the server had disconnected. If you are aware of what the server is, then you may try to manually restart it. Instead of doing that, a much better experience is to show the no connection troubleshoot with the button to start the server or with instructions on how to achieve this.

Flipper Desktop
This folder contains everything to run the Flipper 'Desktop', that is, the UI which you use to interact with the device / app under debug.
Packages provided here:
- flipper-common: utilities & types shared between client, server, flipper-plugin
- flipper-server-core: all device & client management goes in here. Basically flipper's backend
- flipper-ui-core: all UI goes in here, as far as it doesn't depend on Electron
- flipper-ui-electron: the Electron app, will load server-core and ui-core, and glue them together, providing implementations for some electron * specific stuff like dialgos
- flipper-server: A node process hosting flipper-server-core, that can be connected to over websockets. And probably can serve a browser version of the UI as well.
- flipper-ui-browser: thin wrapper around flipper-ui-core, providing some browser specific behavior / stubs.
- flipper-dump: (might remove later), but want to hack a quick and dirt flipper dump in here, as alternative way to test flipper-server-core.
- flipper-plugin: The flipper SDK used by plugins. Exposes all API's that can be used by plugins
- pkg: CLI tool to manage building flipper plugins
- pkg-lib
- plugin-lib
- babel-transformer
- doctor
- eslint-plugin-flipper
