Summary

We’ve come a long way on our journey through the state management ecosystem. In this chapter, we talked about what is considered the most common solution for state management in React apps – Redux. This library has gone through many changes itself. Using it in 2022 is quite different from how it was in 2016 thanks to Redux Toolkit, which we learned about. We talked about the Redux store, reducers, and actions. We’ve also implemented Redux for liked images in our Funbook app. We’re now ready to compare this library to its descendant: MobX. In the next chapter, we will start by taking a brief look at the history and the high-level ideas behind MobX. We will then take example-app-full as our starting point and try to replace the LikedImages context as we did with Redux.
