You Might Not Need Redux

People often choose Redux before they need it. “What if our app doesn’t scale without it?” Later, developers frown at the indirection Redux introduced to their code. “Why do I have to touch three files to get a simple feature working?” Why indeed!

Hey, thanks for feedback! 🙂

I appreciate that you shared your frustrations, and keep them in mind.

Your post includes some misconceptions commonly held in the React community, so I wanted to take a moment to clarify them for everyone else who has the same concerns.

Asking Good Questions

I receive programming questions on Twitter, GitHub, email, and other channels. I try to answer them when I can. Lately I haven’t been able to do that very well because I’m a human and don’t scale.

Hi Sofia!
I’m very sorry that you are having a hard time.

I am working on a new course for Egghead that will show more patterns common in real world applications. I hope you will find it helpful. I plan to release it in June.
