Introduction

![Product Name Screen Shot][product-screenshot]

EventBus Logger flipper is an event inspector to visualize the GreenBot EventBus' event traffic from a mobile app. The mobile app plugin acts as an interceptor for the events, collects each event data and sends to the Flipper desktop plugin. Any additional data can be send but plugin supports timestamp, eventType, stacktrace and eventBody out of the box.

This Plugin is especially helpful during the debugging phase to track-down the events and their removal along the course of app feature usage.
