 ## Reloading JavaScript
 
-Selecting `Reload` from the Developer Menu will reload the JavaScript that powers your application. You can also press `Command⌘ + R` in the iOS Simulator, or press `R` twice on Android emulators.
+Instead of recompiling your app every time you make a change, you can reload your app's JavaScript code instantly. To do so, select "Reload" from the Developer Menu. You can also press **`Command`**`⌘` + **`R`** in the iOS Simulator, or press **`R`** twice on Android emulators.
 
-> If you are using a Dvorak/Colemak layout, use the `Command⌘ + P` keyboard shortcut to reload the simulator.

-You will need to rebuild your app for changes to take effect in certain situations:
-
-* You have added new resources to your native app's bundle, such as an image in `Images.xcassets` on iOS or in `res/drawable` folder on Android.
-* You have modified native code (Objective-C/Swift on iOS or Java/C++ on Android).
-
-> If the `Command⌘ + R` keyboard shortcut does not seem to reload the iOS Simulator, go to the Hardware menu, select Keyboard, and make sure that "Connect Hardware Keyboard" is checked.

 ### Automatic reloading
 
-You may enable Live Reload to automatically trigger a reload whenever your JavaScript code changes.
+You can speed up your development times by having your app reload automatically any time your code changes. Automatic reloading can be enabled by selecting "Enable Live Reload" from the Developer Menu.
 
-Live Reload is available on iOS via the Developer Menu. On Android, select "Dev Settings" from the Developer Menu and enable "Auto reload on JS change".
+You may even go a step further and keep your app running as new versions of your files are injected into the JavaScript bundle automatically by enabling [Hot Reloading](https://facebook.github.io/react-native/blog/2016/03/24/introducing-hot-reloading.html) from the Developer Menu. This will allow you to persist the app's state through reloads.
+
+> There are some instances where hot reloading cannot be implemented perfectly. If you run into any issues, use a full reload to reset your app.

+You may also access these through `Debug → Open System Log...` in the iOS Simulator or by running `adb logcat *:S ReactNative:V ReactNativeJS:V` in a terminal while an Android app is running on a device or emulator.

 ### Debugging on a device with Chrome Developer Tools
 
-On iOS devices, open the file [`RCTWebSocketExecutor.m`](https://github.com/facebook/react-native/blob/master/Libraries/WebSocket/RCTWebSocketExecutor.m) and change `localhost` to the IP address of your computer, then select `Debug JS Remotely` from the Developer Menu.

 On Android 5.0+ devices connected via USB, you can use the [`adb` command line tool](http://developer.android.com/tools/help/adb.html) to setup port forwarding from the device to your computer:
 
 `adb reverse tcp:8081 tcp:8081`
 
-Alternatively, select `Dev Settings` from the Developer Menu, then update the `Debug server host for device` setting to match the IP address of your computer.

 > If you run into any issues, it may be possible that one of your Chrome extensions is interacting in unexpected ways with the debugger. Try disabling all of your extensions and re-enabling them one-by-one until you find the problematic extension.
 
 
 ### Debugging using a custom JavaScript debugger
 
-To use a custom JavaScript debugger in place of Chrome Developer Tools, set the `REACT_DEBUGGER` environment variable to a command that will start your custom debugger. You can then select `Debug JS Remotely` from the Developer Menu to start debugging.

-> The debugger will receive a list of all project roots, separated by a space. For example, if you set `REACT_DEBUGGER="node /path/to/launchDebugger.js --port 2345 --type ReactNative"`, then the command `node /path/to/launchDebugger.js --port 2345 --type ReactNative /path/to/reactNative/app` will be used to start your debugger. Custom debugger commands executed this way should be short-lived processes, and they shouldn't produce more than 200 kilobytes of output.
