Quick Tour

This tour follows the default DevTools and Desktop layouts. The UI is the same across hosts unless noted.

1) Graph viewport

  • Nodes and edges form the live architecture map.
  • Pan with drag, zoom with the wheel or pinch, and use the toolbar to fit or reset the viewport.
  • Node and edge events animate as pulses and moving dots. High volume edges show a small badge with aggregated counts.
  • Parent groups can be collapsed or expanded. Collapsing is instant and deterministic to keep visibility consistent.

2) Floating overlays

  • Tag highlights legend (top-left) shows colored tags with counts.
  • Grouping controls (top-right) toggle grouping depth and expansion without shifting the canvas.

Filters sit at the top. They control what you see on the graph and in the journal.

  • Search supports substring, wildcard, and regex modes.
  • Tag filters let you include or exclude tagged nodes and edges.
  • Severity filtering can focus on warnings or errors without losing context.

See Filters, Focus, and Grouping for full behavior details.

4) Metrics dashboard

Metrics cards aggregate samples (Last, Min, Max, Sum, Count, Avg). The compact mode keeps large metric sets readable while still showing the aggregates.

5) Event chains

Chains show multi-step flows such as login or checkout. Each chain shows its current step and a history of attempts. Use pins to keep the most important chains at the top.

6) Journal and diagnostics

  • The Journal tab lists runtime events with timestamps and severity.
  • The Diagnostics tab shows integrity warnings (duplicate IDs, dangling edges, invalid colors).
  • The focus toolbar lets you narrow the journal to a selected set without hiding the graph.

7) Desktop-specific record/replay

Desktop adds a Record/Replay bar:

  • Record in Live mode, then save a .uyava log.
  • Switch to File mode to replay a saved log with playback controls.
  • Recent recordings appear in the open list, and the app can reveal the current log in your file explorer.

Read Recording and .uyava Logs for details.
