jotai VS signals

Daishi Kato, creator of Zustand and Jotai, says there are a few things we need to support RSC serialization:

I've just published jotai-wrapper, a super tiny and simple utility library that makes using jotai even simpler. It comes from the necessity to migrate a project with react-context-slices to jotai. Both libraries share a similar API. While in react-context-slices you have the useSlice hook, in jotai you have the useAtom, useSetAtom, and useAtomValue hooks. In react-context-slices you define either React Context or Redux slices, while in jotai you define atoms. The need for the migration from the first to the second was a high memory usage by react-context-slices when using React Context slices.

Atom-based: splits states into tiny pieces of data called atoms, which can be written to and read from using React hooks. In this group, we have Recoil and Jotai.

jotai Is the signal based state manager I recommended, offering the best developer experience (in my opinion) as it eliminates the necessity to define and update a global store

Jotai 🧙‍♂️

Atomic libs include Recoil, Jotai, and the one I maintain: Zedux. Zedux especially was designed to work well with sockets and RxJS observables and has been getting some traction recently, so of course I recommend checking it out. Feel free to hmu with any questions.

Global State Machine: Jotai (great for any state that needs to be stored globally for your application)

Putting the runic terminology aside and looking into how the signal primitive is implemented should dispel the magic. I learned a lot from examining preact's implementation: https://github.com/preactjs/signals/blob/main/packages/core/...

All the frameworks are starting to adapt them. You can easily add them to react project as well. https://preactjs.com/blog/introducing-signals/

Signals are a design paradigm for reactive programming which have recently trended in the JS frontend space. For e.g., https://preactjs.com/blog/introducing-signals/

Compare Vue's reactivity system to the principles the Preact authors write about here:

Reactivity libraries are at the heart of modern web component frameworks like Solid, Qwik, Vue, and Svelte. And in some cases you can add fine-grained reactive state management to other libraries like Lit and React. Reactively comes with a decorator for adding reactive properties to any class, as well as prototype integration with Lit. Preact Signals comes with a prototype integration with React. Expect more integrations as these reactivity cores mature.

State solution should not be a framework, this is what I dislike in riverpod as well.. its a FRAMEWORK... compare to the simple useSignal hook that preact has https://preactjs.com/blog/introducing-signals/ this looks like an overkill.

Looks like it's coming from here https://preactjs.com/blog/introducing-signals

Sciter got native (built-in) Signal implementation made after PReact's Signals;
