react-redux-introduction

An introduction to using Redux on a React application. This covers the basics of Redux strict unidirectional data flow.

Getting Started

Remember that Redux is only a tool that is used to manage an application's state! It isn't a compulsary tool to your React applications. Consider the data flow of your app before using Redux.

The 3 fundamental principles of Redux:

1. Single Source of Truth - the state of an application is stored in an object tree within a single store.
2. State is Read-Only - the only way to change the state is to emit an action.
3. Changes Are Made With Pure Functions - reducers specify how the state is transformed by actions

That's pretty much it!

There aren't any big configurations needed here just be sure to run the latest versions of all the named dependencies.
