MobX VS Recoil

States can also be organized in some central places (aka. stores). You can use Tini Store (very simple, ~50 lines) or other state management solutions such as MobX, TinyX, ...

Similarly to Promises/A+, this effort focuses on aligning the JavaScript ecosystem. If this alignment is successful, then a standard could emerge, based on that experience. Several framework authors are collaborating here on a common model which could back their reactivity core. The current draft is based on design input from the authors/maintainers of Angular, Bubble, Ember, FAST, MobX, Preact, Qwik, RxJS, Solid, Starbeam, Svelte, Vue, Wiz, and more…

MobX

Mutable-based: leverages proxy to create mutable data sources which can be directly written to or reactively read from. Candidates in this group are MobX and Valtio.

Looks good! FWIW I always felt the observable pattern much more intuitive than the redux/reducer style. Something like https://mobx.js.org/

Things get hairy in both, but redux pattern feels so ridiculously ceremonially to effectively manage a huge global state object with a false sense of "purity".

Observables otoh say "fuck it, I'm mutating everything, do what you want with it".

MobX Documentation

There's also others libraries like https://github.com/mobxjs/mobx which aren't specific to RN but can be used in any JS environment.

Valtio is like simplified MobX

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.

recoil -> Designed to solve a specific problem. Not good for all use cases. Understand it first! You can learn more about it here.

Recoil Official Website

Recoil 🌀

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.

However you may find better luck with Recoil which is developed by Meta, and is designed to work with Async data, and is a much simpler project to get started with.

Recoil introduced a new pattern for storing state and propagating updates. This atomic model has proven to scale up better than the singleton model at the cost of some hefty learning curves.

recoil is extremely similar to Riverpod but for React (both are backed by a data flow graph).

Before we proceed you can check the project on github. This implementation is for learning purposes, for production use check Jotai or Recoil.
