Make the top file in the error detail view stack trace expanded by default

Problem to solve

In Sentry, the top file in the stack trace is unfolded by default. If the top file usually contains the most critical information for root cause analysis, we may want to keep the top stack trace entry expanded by default, like Sentry does. By keeping it unfolded we could save the user an extra click.

Intended users

  • Delaney (Development Team Lead)
  • Sasha (Software Developer)
  • Devon (DevOps Engineer)
  • Sidney (Systems Administrator)

Further details

By keeping the top entry in the stack trace unfolded we could save the user an extra click during root cause analysis.

Proposal

Keep the top entry in the stack trace unfolded by default.
