Reactive Programming, State Management, & Redux for the Modern Front End Developer Jennifer Wadella
Problems with Modern JavaScript Development
Imperative Approach When events occur, code runs and changes the state of the program.
Declarative Approach Specifying HOW the state of a program should be altered.
Reactive Programming A declarative programming style concerned with data "streams" and propagation of change.
(Reactive Extensions for JavaScript) is a library for reactive programming using observables that makes it easier to compose asynchronous or callback-based code.
State Management An organized approached to maintaining the state of your application data in a way that can be written to and read from.
Redux 101 Store: An object tree representing the state of your application. Action: An object describing how to modify the state.
Akita Cons . Subscription Management Not super clear where to put logic
