[This commit](https://github.com/gaearon/redux-devtools/commit/0a2a97556e252bfad822ca438923774bc8b932a4) should give you an idea about how to add Redux DevTools for your app **but make sure to only apply `devTools()` in development!** In production, this will be terribly slow because actions just accumulate forever. (We'll need to implement a rolling window for dev too.) [This commit](https://github.com/gaearon/redux-devtools/commit/0a2a97556e252bfad822ca438923774bc8b932a4) should give you an idea about how to add Redux DevTools for your app **but make sure to only apply `devTools()` in development!** In production, this will be terribly slow because actions just accumulate forever. (We'll need to implement a rolling window for dev too.)
For example, in Webpack, you can use `ProvidePlugin` to turn magic constants like `__DEV__` into `true` or `false` depending on the environment, and import and render `redux-devtools` conditionally behind `if (__DEV__)`. Then, if you have an Uglify step before production, Uglify will eliminate dead `if (false)` branches with `redux-devtools` imports. Here is [an example](https://github.com/erikras/react-redux-universal-hot-example/compare/66bf63fb0f23a3c264a5d37c3acb4c047bf0c0c9...c6515236a1def8a3d2bfeb8f6cd6f0ccdb2f9e1b) of adding React DevTools to a project handling the production case correctly.
