Overview of this book

State management is one of the most complex concepts in React. Traditionally, developers have used monolithic state management solutions. Thanks to React Hooks, micro state management is something tuned for moving your application from a monolith to a microservice. This book provides a hands-on approach to the implementation of micro state management that will have you up and running and productive in no time. You’ll learn basic patterns for state management in React and understand how to overcome the challenges encountered when you need to make the state global. Later chapters will show you how slicing a state into pieces is the way to overcome limitations. Using hooks, you'll see how you can easily reuse logic and have several solutions for specific domains, such as form state and server cache state. Finally, you'll explore how to use libraries such as Zustand, Jotai, and Valtio to organize state and manage development efficiently. By the end of this React book, you'll have learned how to choose the right global state management solution for your app requirement.

Using a module state as a global state in React

As we discussed in Chapter 3, Sharing Component State with Context, React Context is designed to provide different values for different subtrees. Using React Context for a singleton global state is a valid operation, but it doesn't use the full capability of Context.

If what you need is a global state for an entire tree, a module state might fit better. However, to use a module state in a React component, we need to handle re-rendering ourselves.

Let's start with a simple example. Unfortunately, this is a non-working example:

let count = 0;
const Component1 = () => {
  const inc = () => {
    count += 1;
  }
  return (
    <div>{count} <button onClick={inc}>+1</button></div>
  );
};

You will see count 0 at the beginning. Clicking button increases the count variable, but it doesn't trigger the component...
