Getting started

1. In your app's root directory, use npm to install Glimpse.

npm install @glimpse/glimpse --save-dev

2. Initialize Glimpse before any other require() or application logic (typically at the top of index.js or app.js).

if (process.env.NODE_ENV !== 'production') {
  require('@glimpse/glimpse').init();
}

3. Open your app in a browser. The Glimpse HUD should now be at the bottom right of your app.
