Episode 2 — React Frontend Architecture NextJS / 2.14 — State Management Using Redux

2.14.f — Alternatives: Recoil, Zustand, and MobX

<< 2.14 Overview


Learning outcomes

  1. Compare Redux vs Zustand vs MobX vs Recoil on axes: mental model, ergonomics, debuggability.
  2. Pick a tool for a scenario without ideology.

Zustand

Mental model: small stores created with functions; subscribe to slices; minimal boilerplate.

Great when: you want lightweight global state without heavy ceremony.

Risk: conventions must be enforced by the team (easy to create “anything goes” mutators).


MobX

Mental model: observables + reactions; UI tracks dependencies automatically.

Great when: you want fine-grained reactivity and your team understands observable discipline.

Risk: “invisible” dependencies can surprise newcomers; needs strong team patterns.


Recoil

Mental model: atoms and selectors as a graph; async selectors for derived async state.

Great when: you want flexible derived state graphs in React-heavy apps.

Risk: graph complexity can grow quickly; needs governance.


Redux vs the field

Redux remains strong where explicit actions and central reducers matter for debugging, onboarding, and large-team consistency—especially with RTK.
