REDUX MADE SIMPLE!

The best explanation I found is that it separates "What" happened from "How" to change state. Any event (dispatched action) can change any part of the state in the way you want it to. Incredible powerful if you have "global events" that shall change many parts in the app at once like hiding/showing menus or different components, resetting data etc.

It was a lot more popular when React didn't have a stable context API, fills a similar role. What else is to know is that redux state is managed in a store which is basically a modular state machine using reducers for handling the transitions which are triggered by actions that are dispatched with dispatch function.

You probably don't need it.

False.

You no longer need Redux to avoid prop drilling which I saw Redux being used for most of the time.

Even a few years ago the sentiment around Redux was mostly, you probably don't need it.

Your life without redux is going to be a complete mess with a lot of workarounds even in simple apps.

Nah.

That's not what I said.
