react-query VS zustand

react-query

React Query: This library makes it easy to manage data in your React applications, from fetching to caching and updating data. It offers a simple, powerful, and flexible API for handling data and keeping your UI in sync with your data. https://github.com/tannerlinsley/react-query

useQuery (react-query) (+) all from above (+) even more features (-) more complex, even the examples are complex, has more aggressive defaults (re-fetching every 2s)

Rapini is a new tool that can generate custom React Query hooks using OpenAPI (Swagger) files.

React Query is the gold standard for using async data declaratively with hooks. I ended up needing to modify even my simple useTimer hook to work more like useQuery to take multiple keys in order to work as an inner observable for other operators.

For most situations, I would recommend using a library like React Query. It handles a lot of common data-fetching boiler plate and already accounts for this useEffect() issue. Also, it supports Suspense if you want to use that.

At this point, I want to move on to the react-query cache management library. Give a brief overview and see how you can improve your developer experience with cache using this library.

There isn't the "service" concept in React. If you need to send off data you can just do so with fetch. If you need to load data and cache it so it can be used across components and unmounts, then something like react-query is what I'd recommend. But it's basically a combination of React Context, useEffect, and useState to manage the cache and lifecycle of a request.

react-query is pretty neat too. I default to that for most projects unless it's something unusual

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

Have you ever wanted to learn state-management but it felt so overwhelming to get started with Redux? Or maybe you're already using Redux but don't want to take the burden anymore? If so, you might want to take a shot at Zustand! Its an amazing state management library that's easy to get started and maintain in a long run. In this post, we'll dive into creating & sharing stores with this tiny Redux alternative.

You add the current user state to a React Context or state management library, read from it on the top bar, and write to it after a user signs in. Done. No big deal, right?

Zustand

I tried using skipHydration inside my zustand store based on their docs, then rehydrating it inside my modal. So far im getting the same errors. https://github.com/pmndrs/zustand/blob/main/docs/integrations/persisting-store-data.md

Reducer-based: requires dispatching actions to update a big centralised state, often called a “single source of truth”. In this group, we have Redux and Zustand.
