I've been using Redux for the first time lately. It may be conceptually elegant but in practice it's really a mess. In order to do any real work with it you have to pull in something like redux-thunk and then all your fancy state management tricks go out the window. I would go so far as to say I consider it an anti pattern outside of some very specific use cases. I intend to try Mobx sometime soon but I've also found you can go very far using stateful vanilla React components and no third party state libraries at all.
