We'll exchange React's local state (e.g. users on admin page, messages on home page) and React's context (e.g. session management for authenticated user) with MobX. It will how…

In addition, it is a valuable alternative to Redux as state management solution. If you are using create-react-app as your application boilerplate, you most likely run into the questions of how to…
I am excited to launch my course The Road to Redux . I worked on the course for the last 6 months and squeezed every of my free minutes during a workweek, weekends and holidays into it. For instance, when writing the book, I woke up two hours earlier before my 9 to 5 job to write ~750 qualitative words a day. It continued by building a platform…

People are uncertain which solution to pick. The issue isn't necessarily Redux vs MobX . Whenever there exists an alternative, people are curious what…
