React Redux

Redux is a state management library that allows sharing of data across components in a structured way. State is stored in a central cache called the Redux store and can only be updated through actions. Reducers are pure functions that take the current state and an action as input and return a new state. Middleware allows intercepting actions before they reach the reducer. Using Redux simplifies state management in complex apps by making the flow of data predictable and easier to trace.

INTRODUCTION :

Redux is a predictable state container designed to

help you write JavaScript apps that behave

consistently across client, server, and native

environments and are easy to test.

In short, Redux is a way to manage the “state” or we

can say it is a cache or storage that can be

accessed by all components with a structured way.

It has to be accessed through a “Reducer” and

“Actions”
What is state management in

Redux?

State management is essentially a way to facilitate

communication and sharing of data across components.

It creates a tangible data structure to represent the

state of your app that you can read from and write to.

That way, you can see otherwise invisible states while

you’re working with them.

As the management gets messy as the app gets

complex. This is why you need a state management

tool like Redux that makes it easier to maintain these

states. Let’s get a good overview of Redux concepts

before considering its benefits.


Actions in Redux :
Simply put, actions are events. They are the only way you

can send data from your application to your Redux store.

The data can be from user interactions, API calls, or even

form submissions.

Actions are sent using the store.dispatch() method.

Actions are plain JavaScript objects, and they must have

a type property to indicate the type of action to be

carried out.

Here’s an example of an action that can be carried out

during login in an app:


Reducers in Redux:
Reducers are pure functions that take the current

state of an application, perform an action, and return

a new state. These states are stored as objects, and

they specify how the state of an application changes

in response to an action sent to the store

Here is an example of how reducers work in Redux:


Redux middleware:
Redux allows developers to intercept all actions

dispatched from components before they are passed to

the reducer function. This interception is done via

middlewares.
Building on the example Login component discussed in

the last section, we might want to sanitize the user’s

input before it reaches our store for further processing.

This can be achieved via Redux middleware.

Here’s what a simple middleware looks like:


Why use Redux?
When using Redux with React, states will no longer need

to be lifted up. This makes it easier for you to trace

which action causes any change.

As you can see in the example above, the component

does not need to provide any state or method for its

children components to share data among themselves.

Everything is handled by Redux. This greatly simplifies

the app and makes it easier to maintain.

This is the primary reason why you should use Redux,

but it’s not the only benefit. Take a look at the list below

for a summary of what you stand to gain by using Redux

for state management.
