Hello , Ive stumbled upon your post while deciding upon context api or redux for a next js project , and a user from reddit said a year ago, "Context is actually not great as a Redux replacement, since every context consumer does re-render whenever any value in the context changes, while in Redux only those components must be rendered for which the selected data changed." , is this still true in 2020 . And what do you think about Apollo state vs state manager (redux , mobx , redux) . I am using Apollo graphql in my Nextjs client.
For a bigger level project, I would still suggest using Redux, as it is still now the industry standard. I don't exactly have the complete knowledge of the inner working of redux and context api, especially how they handle content rendering, so I can not enlighten you about that. At the end of the day, the technology you choose depends on two things - what your app needs and how much comfortable you are with that technology.
Thanks for replying , that seems clear to me now . context-api+usereducer is my default pick currently for state manager unless I need redux dev tools , the rendering rumor is still to be investigated by me.
