Summary: As previously reported in https://github.com/facebook/flipper/issues/457, I immediately started to see crashes with Flipper integrated due to large responses (e.g., >= 100MB). This will only write the first 100KB of the response or request body into `RequestInfo` objects. ## Changelog - Limits request/response body in network request info to 100KB max. Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/flipper/pull/617 Test Plan: - Make a network request which has a response size of < 100kb, verify that it is visible in its entirety - Make a network request w/ response size > 100kb, verify that it is truncated - Ideally, use your application with the Network plugin running, and do not see OOMs Reviewed By: mweststrate Differential Revision: D19412075 Pulled By: passy fbshipit-source-id: c93662dba7a5f24820287e56e889576b5bcb5a72

Mobile development
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.
Extending Flipper
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.
Contributing to Flipper
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.

Building from Source
Desktop
Running from source
git clone https://github.com/facebook/flipper.git
cd flipper
yarn
yarn start
NOTE: If you're on Windows, you need to use Yarn 1.5.1 until this issue is resolved.
Building standalone application
Provide either --mac, --win, --linux or any combination of them
to yarn build to build a release zip file for the given platform(s). E.g.
yarn build --mac --version $buildNumber
You can find the resulting artifact in the dist/ folder.
iOS SDK + Sample App
cd iOS/Sample
rm -f Podfile.lock
pod install --repo-update
open Sample.xcworkspace
<Run app from xcode>
You can omit --repo-update to speed up the installation, but watch out as you may be building against outdated dependencies.
Android SDK + Sample app
Start up an android emulator and run the following in the project root:
./gradlew :sample:installDebug
