Getting Started with Redux


Watch All Lessons in Course (30)

Managing state in an application is critical, and is often done haphazardly. Redux provides a state container for JavaScript applications that will help your applications behave consistently.

Redux is an evolution of the ideas presented by Facebook's Flux, avoiding the complexity found in Flux by looking to how applications are built with the Elm language.

Redux is useful for React applications, but React is not a requirement!

In this series, we will learn the basics of Redux, so that you can start using it to simplify your applications.

1:54 JavaScript

There is something in common between all Redux applications. They have to implement the reducer: a function that calculates the next state tree based on the previous state tree and the action being dispatched.
