Redux - Additional Topics

Reading

Redux Toolkit (RTK)

• What concerns are addressed by Redux Toolkit?

  • “Configuring a Redux store is too complicated”
  • “I have to add a lot of packages to get Redux to do anything useful”
  • “Redux requires too much boilerplate code”

• What does configureStore() do?

  • wraps createStore to provide simplified configuration options and good defaults. It can automatically combine your slice reducers, adds whatever Redux middleware you supply, includes redux-thunk by default, and enables use of the Redux DevTools Extension.

• How would I use createSlice()?

  • accepts an object of reducer functions, a slice name, and an initial state value, and automatically generates a slice reducer with corresponding action creators and action types.

MobX

• What is Mobx?

  • is a simple, scalable and battle tested state management solution

• How does MobX make it “impossible” to produce an inconsistent state?

  • data needs to be normalized, referential integrity can no longer be guaranteed and it becomes next to impossible to use powerful concepts like classes in case you fancy those

• How would we build a reactive user interface?

  • By using an observer pattern
