createAction — lets you define action creators, similar to typesafe-actions. I'm a TypeScript die-hard so type safety is non-negotiable. 😆
I'll be working on a new major version of react-loading-skeleton. Check out the roadmap here!
RTK Query seems complex and unintuitive to me, but my opinion might change if I tried it out. If you're looking for an alternative, you might like React Query. I also evaluated the similar SWR library but found it lacking some features that my team uses constantly.
Redux has long been the go-to library for managing global state in React applications. Redux Toolkit, which Mark helped create, is a relatively new library that aims to be the "official, opinionated, batteries-included toolset for efficient Redux development." This post will go into my thoughts on the benefits and potential drawbacks of Redux Toolkit.
Of course, you can still use other side effect models like sagas and observables alongside Redux Toolkit. I'm a big fan of Redux Saga, which makes it straightforward to integrate Redux with your backend API while also enabling you to write incredibly powerful asynchronous flows. Sagas are written using generator functions and yield which does take some getting used to.

createReducer — allows you to write a reducer without a switch statement. Uses Immer under the hood. Immer is amazing and you should use it in your reducers even if you don't plan to use Redux Toolkit.
