Overview of this book

Managing state in a React Native app can be challenging as it is one of the most difficult concepts to grasp while learning React Native. This is because there are so many ways to do it, and because there is a lack of clear guidelines on what should be used and why. Simplifying State Management in React Native is a comprehensive introduction for those who are new to creating robust React Native apps that will have you up to speed in no time. You’ll get to grips with the different state management strategies and libraries available. As you progress through the chapters, you’ll try out different solutions, as well as compare and choose which solution is perfectly suited to your future projects and personal preferences. Finally, you’ll create a social media clone app using all the concepts and examples that you’ve learned in this book. By the end of this book, you’ll be able to take on existing projects that use various state management strategies and libraries, and confidently make decisions about state management.

Installing and configuring Redux

As with any library that we would like to add to our project, we will start by reading the documentation. The Redux documentation has evolved a lot over the years. In 2022, the recommended install includes Redux Toolkit.

Redux Toolkit is the recommended official approach to using Redux. It contains commonly used packages and dependencies for building Redux apps. This toolkit also simplifies a lot of tasks necessary for using Redux, such as creating the store or reducers. Any user is free to install and use core Redux, but we will use the recommended approach and use Redux Toolkit.

Why not just Redux?

The Redux library has evolved a lot since its conception in 2015. Its ecosystem has also grown a lot. The recommended Redux Toolkit is the most practical addition to Redux apps written in 2022, although it is not a necessity.

Let’s start by going into the files for the full app, which is placed in the example-app-full folder. Feel free...
