Description of the problem
Same as https://github.com/codesandbox/codesandbox-client/issues/884
I hit this problem a lot, I am surprised that it isn't a bigger issue. I'm usually using the React Typescript template, I don't know if that is relevant.
When it happens it (usually) completely kills the browser (Chrome). I can't close the tab. Opening codesandbox.io in another tab doesn't load. I have to close the whole application. As soon as I open the afflicted sandbox, boom, it's busted again. I can open the developer tools and pause the script but even with it paused, it doesn't reload. Pretty strange, I thought Chrome would be a bit more resilient to bad scripts than that.
How has this issue affected you? What are you trying to accomplish?
To Reproduce
See example.
It almost always goes something like:
- I am trying to find a bug
- I add a
console.debugstatement - Boom
It might be an infinite loop but I can't see it. Usually it is a React app that works fine, it responds to events etc but there is a bug somewhere. If it is a loop then it could be a render loop (calling setState from useEffect) which I know React detects itself even within the sandbox.
It seems like something bigger is going on.

Your Environment
| Software | Name/Version |
|---|---|
| Сodesandbox | 506a47198 |
| Browser | Version 103.0.5060.134 (Official Build) (arm64) |
| Operating System | MacBook Pro (16-inch, 2021), Apple M1 Max, macOS Monterey version 12.4 |
There is a render loop in this example.
If I run the same thing in a parcel project then I get the React warning. It does log infinitely but I can easily close the tab, refresh etc as one would expect.
Codesandbox is definitely exacerbating the problem somehow.
