tsdx VS redux-toolkit

tsdx - Zero-config CLI for TypeScript package development

If you’re into TypeScript, I highly recommend https://tsdx.io . I’ve used it to create a package before and it’s so much easier

Thanks for the insight fellas. Aside question, I was thinking of bootstrapping the project with tsdx, but their last release was well over 2 years ago. Wondering if there are any alternative options for creating libraries?

NOTE: If your project uses TypeScript, I would suggest using tsdx instead.

Sadly, it's a bit dead. We switched to dts-cli fork, but tsup looks good too

I don't depend on the actual typescript docs much but thankfully in @types and in tons of repos there are examples of well written typescript code.

The amount of JS and TS out there is also a bit of a foot gun though so stick with heavily used/starred libs if you aren't sure.

One tool that helps a lot with developing libraries in typescript is TSDX[0] or its successor dts-cli[1] and there is a bunch of good stuff in awesesome-typescript[2].

Maybe library devving is harder?(more work?) with tyepscript but it is worth it for the end developer, especially if that end developer is you. If you aren't using your own libs then you're probably getting paid by someone else to make them or... idk.

We will use a TSDX library - this tool is something similar to create-react-app, but for creating components library. It allows as to initialize a project immediately with already set up bundler, Rollup with Typescript supporting, testing with Jest, code formatter, Prettier and Storybook.

May be you need to try https://tsdx.io/

So what is the ideal way to build TypeScript libraries? I've heard that tsdx https://tsdx.io/ is quite good

There’s tsdx. But I’d recommend using Vite and storybook-vite

In my example I am using Redux Toolkit and I got a prompt for actions to login and logout the user. If I need more functions, I can simply start typing the name, and Copilot provides the completion. For instance, in the example, I'm adding a function to update the user. And of course at the end of the file it suggests the exports.

Redux Toolkit 2.0

Redux Toolkit 2.0 is almost here! Hopefully shipping by this weekend :) Migration page

I am _thrilled_ to announce that:

Redux Toolkit 2.0 is LIVE!!!

- https://github.com/reduxjs/redux-toolkit/releases/tag/v2.0.0

This major version has new features, faster perf, smaller bundle size, and removes deprecated options.

It's accompanied by majors for all our Redux family packages

## RTK 2.0:

- a new `combineSlices` method for lazy-loading reducers - Updates to `createSlice` to include a `selectors` field and allow defining thunks inside

- Immer 10 w/ faster updates

- Removal of deprecated options

See the migration guide:

- https://redux.js.org/usage/migrations/migrating-rtk-2

All of the Redux libraries now have modernized packaging with full ESM/CJS compat. They also ship modern JS (no transpiling for IE11), which means smaller bundle sizes.

We've also done byte-shaving work to shrink the bundles (extracting error messages, de-duping imports)

## Redux core 5.0:

- The TS conversion we did in 2019!

- Action types _must_ be strings

- `UnknownAction` as the default action type

- Better preloaded state types

- Internal subscription improvements

- Still marks `createStore` as deprecated!

- https://github.com/reduxjs/redux/releases/tag/v5.0.0

## React-Redux 9.0:

- *Now requires React 18 and RTK 2.0 / Redux 5.0*

Oh hey, that's my post!

(yes I spend too much time refreshing HN :) )

FWIW I did end up with a packaging combination that seems to work sufficiently. I never did fix the "FalseCJS" issue that `are-the-types-wrong` is detecting. I played with double-emitting TS typedefs, and the `tsup` tool _does_ actually have support for that now (added by Andrew Branch from the TS team). So it might be more feasible now. But ultimately I decided I was tired of messing with packaging setup and that what I've got is good enough. (hopefully)

We're actually about to launch Redux Toolkit 2.0 and Redux 5.0 this week, assuming the last couple pieces come together. Here's the latest RCs - you can see the current `package.json` files in there:

- https://github.com/reduxjs/redux-toolkit/releases/tag/v2.0.0...

- https://github.com/reduxjs/redux/releases/tag/v5.0.0-rc.1

However, Redux, or pure Redux to be specific, can be quite verbose and boilerplate-heavy. It requires a significantly lengthy setup, which is where Redux Toolkit comes in handy, offering a simplified and more efficient way to set up and manage state in your React applications.

State manager is a tool or library that helps manage the state of an application. It provides a centralized store or container for storing and managing data that can be accessed and updated by different components in the application. A state manager solves several problems. Firstly, it is a good practice to separate data and the logic related to it from components. Secondly, when using local state and passing it between components, the code can become convoluted due to the potential for deep nesting of components. By having a global store, we can access and modify data from any component. Alongside React Context, Redux or MobX are commonly used as state management libraries. Learn more Learn more
