RUM now offers React Native Crash Reporting and Error Tracking

What's this blog post about?

React Native has become a popular development framework for cross-platform mobile applications due to its ability to interact with native APIs and require minimal platform-specific code. However, detecting and troubleshooting errors in React Native applications can be complex as they may originate from either JavaScript or native iOS/Android code. Datadog's Crash Reporting and Error Tracking are now available for React Native via Real User Monitoring (RUM), providing comprehensive human-readable error reports, crash detection, analytics, and alerts on error trends. This feature generates source maps for your code automatically upon each build of the application, symbolizing stack traces and unminifying code to create clear error reports. RUM also provides detailed visibility into the context in which errors occur within user sessions. Enabling Crash Reporting ensures comprehensive oversight of all potential error sources for React Native applications, helping developers quickly get to the root of errors and improve application stability.
