How To Improve Your Developer Experience (DX) With React, Hooks And Redux-Toolkit (rtk)

In few of my previous articles on React Hooks I mention how I'm using hooks (in my practicing english reading app - ReadM) to encapsulate features and making it reusable in apps. I consider state to be an important feature in app - and that's why I prefer to have some kind of a central state management that the client code can speak with as one source of truth.

Nowadays, Redux is still my preferred solution for front end central state management. Some of its benefits I appreciate include:

  1. Well designed implementation
  2. Maturity
  3. Integrated Devtools
  4. Community
  5. Extendability
