Pros and cons of using React context API and hooks to manage state instead of Redux

Submitted Aug 8, 2019

Duration: 40 mins full talk

The front-end universe is expanding exponentially and there are a bunch of options to choose from in every aspect of front-end development.

State management is the core part of front-end development.

This talk is for people who wants to compare various state management patterns and when to use what.

Outline

The talk will be broken down in the following:

Why state management is required?
Brief intro of redux.
Benefits of redux.
Problems with redux.
When to use the Context API instead of redux.
How to scale the Context API using hooks.

Requirements

Target audience

The target audience are people who have built a few apps in ReactJS and know the importance of state management.

They should have a basic understanding of redux since I will be comparing it with Context API + hooks.

Basic knowledge of hooks and context API will be good to have.
