Hi Dan, I don't know if question I am going to ask is too simple but want to hear your views on it.

For state management in ReactJS I am using mobx but I have heard about Redux too.

So according to you which is better to use with ReactJS, Mobx or Redux?

Both are useful tools that try to solve state management in very different ways.

I suggest checking out these comparisons:

Reddit: "Confused - Redux or MobX?"
Robin Wieruch's post Redux or MobX: An attempt to dissolve the confusion
Preethi Kasireddy's excellent ReactConf talk MobX vs Redux: Comparing the Opposing Paradigms

I also have links to additional Redux vs MobX comparisons as well.

Thanks I will check them out☺️

They’re just different. If one was obviously better than the other one then everybody would use it.

I've mentioned this before, but this course really helped me get a deeper understanding of state management, Redux vs. Mobx in particular:
