Installation

Uyava ships as a DevTools extension and a desktop app. Both hosts read the same SDK events, so you can choose the workflow that fits your team.

If you want to keep terminal-based debugging habits, you can also mirror Uyava events to the app console during setup. See SDK Integration for console logger options.

DevTools extension (for users)

• Install it from the Flutter DevTools Extensions catalog when the public listing is available.
• Open DevTools while your app runs in debug or profile mode, then select the Uyava tab.

DevTools extension (for contributors only)

If you work on the extension itself, build and copy it locally:

cd <repo>/.../uyava_devtools_extension
flutter pub run devtools_extensions build_and_copy \
  --source=. \
  --dest=<host-project>/extension/devtools

Desktop app

• Download the installer from the Download page.
• Launch the app and paste the VM Service URI from your running Flutter app.
• The desktop host mirrors the DevTools UI but runs locally for better performance.

IDE plugins (VS Code / Android Studio)

• Install IDE launchers from the marketplace links in IDE Plugins.
• Use them to open or attach Uyava Desktop with project context and VM Service URI.
• Keep Desktop installed locally; plugins are launchers, not replacements for Desktop.

Useful CLI shortcuts (desktop binary):

./uyava_desktop --vm-service-uri ws://127.0.0.1:xxxxx/ws?authToken=... --project-path /path/to/project
./uyava_desktop --focus-only
./uyava_desktop /path/to/log.uyava

Desktop Pro

Desktop Pro unlocks advanced replay features but uses the same desktop installer. A license key enables Pro features in the running app.
