# Quickly Search For A Component With React DevTools
|
|
|
|
As the size of your React app grows, it can become challenging to track down
|
|
specific components within the [React
|
|
DevTools](https://github.com/facebook/react-devtools) extension. You opened
|
|
it up with the hopes of quickly inspecting the `props` being received by a
|
|
component, but find yourself navigating through the DOM structure instead.
|
|
|
|
The React DevTools extension provides a search bar that can be used to
|
|
quickly filter out most components.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
The search bar is located at the top of the extension. Once you start typing
|
|
the results are immediate. Then, if you hover over any of the remaining
|
|
components, you'll get some visual feedback as they are highlighted in the
|
|
browser.
