Combining Hooks and Redux

React Hooks for Local State:

React Hooks, such as useState and useEffect, are primarily used for managing local component states and handling side effects within functional components. Hooks make it easier to work with stateful logic, making functional components more powerful and flexible....

Redux for Global State:

Redux, on the other hand, is designed for managing global application states. It provides a centralized store that holds the state of your entire application. Components can connect to the Redux store and dispatch actions to update the state. This is particularly useful in large-scale applications where managing state across components becomes challenging....

When to Use Redux?

Redux is often recommended when you have complex state management needs, such as shared state across multiple components, deeply nested state hierarchies, or when state changes need to be tracked and logged for debugging purposes. Redux provides a predictable state container that follows a unidirectional data flow....

Combining Hooks and Redux:

It’s common to use React Hooks within individual components for managing local state, while Redux manages the global state of the application. The useDispatch and useSelector hooks from the react-redux library make it easy to integrate React components with the Redux store....

Redux Toolkit and Hooks:

Redux Toolkit, an official package recommended by the Redux team, includes utilities that simplify common Redux patterns. It also provides the createSlice function, which generates reducer logic and action creators, making it more concise. Additionally, it introduces the useDispatch and useSelector hooks for use in functional components....
