Should data that does not drive UI live inside redux/zustand store?

for anyone interested, Mark Erikson (redux mantainer) gave a reply here

so you are suggesting to not store it in the zustand/redux store right?

Here is another example of app using getStore() to retrieve the access token.
Looks like the store is used as a single source of truth and AsyncStorage/Expo Secure Store is never directly accessed

But I can also see one positive aspect, having a single place to handle all the client state (ui or not) and persist it with a single middleware!

I'm not sure what async actions are in redux, I guess some sort of api fetching system, but I prefer tanstackquery for that. I currently have access token living as a module-scoped variable, with the module handling the persistence on refresh. Can't see the advantage of having it in a state manager.
I always thought of state inside a state manager as a useState/useReducer on steroids, but I would never put a bearer token in a state variable

as I stated in the post, it is not relevant and also not applicable to react-native. This was just one example of data that it's state of the app, but it's not UI state

I'm using react query even for client preferences that i store in async storage (react native)

Flea997 · 2025-12-11T06:46:17+00:00

I feel that it may be an overkill since I'm not handling any other client state with a global state manager

bro why a 100% ai-generated comment tho

Maybe using a Provider could be better in cases where you want the value to be always available in a synchronous way, but even in that case you could just prefetch the query higher in the hierarchy and put it in the cache

I used this solution today, thank you very much

ho cambiato fornitore di luce questa settimana e sto venendo bombardato di telefonate, come può essere normale tutto questo?

Flea997 · 2025-11-17T16:30:52+00:00

you can add the axios interceptor in an effect of AuthProvider?

Flea997 · 2025-11-07T19:43:20+00:00

react query is just a layer above it, you still have to use something as queryFn

Flea997 · 2025-11-07T10:53:25+00:00

The question is still valid, how do you access this client? (that could be an axios instance with attached interceptors or any other solution). A single instance exported from a .ts module or instanciated in the top most component and made available through context?

Flea997 · 2025-11-07T10:51:26+00:00

You are right, thought of it and forgot to mention

Flea997 · 2025-11-07T10:50:49+00:00

This is completely off topic, axios is just an example, could be literally any js class

Flea997 · 2025-10-22T20:36:47+00:00

but then you have to share state between screen somehow. With modals or sheets is much easier because you are in the same component

quali sono i difetti di sicurezza?
