What is Redux?

• Redux is a predictable state container for JavaScript apps.
• In lay-man’s terms, that’s saying, “it helps you tame the beast”. Metaphorically.
• Redux takes away some of the hassles faced with state management in large applications. It provides you with a great developer experience, and makes sure that the testability of your app isn’t sacrificed for any of those.

Whe use Redux?

• In larger apps with a lot of moving pieces, state management becomes a huge concern. Redux ticks that off quite well without performance concerns or trading off testability.
• One other reason a lot of developers love Redux is the developer experience that comes with it.

The Redux principles

• #1 One application state object managed by one store.
• #2 The only way to change a state is to emit an action, an object describing what happened.
• #3 To specify how the state tree is transformed by actions, you write pure reducers.
