I have made several relatively large systems using Redux, and it has become a necessity in order to handle complexity of new features. Overcoming the initial cognitive load takes a week or two, but as your system grows, your productivity and code organization is greatly improved. I also recommend Immutable for handling the state object and reselect for computing your container state properties. Those technologies together are a pleasure to develop with.

How does https://github.com/kolodny/immutability-helper https://github.com/kolodny/immutability-helper compare to Immutable in your experience? The latter seems potentially more performant and lighter-weight; curious what its disadvantages might be (the syntax?)

  I personally recommend against using Immutable.js, for a number of reasons (which I wrote as a Reddit comment a while ago [0] ). There's some additional info on Immutable.js-related perf in my links list [1] FYI, there's also a bunch of other immutable update utility libs besides immutability-helper. I have a list of them in my Redux addons catalog [2].

    Interesting, thanks for sharing. I took a look at your list of links recently, actually – it was helpful. I'm considering syntax-level support for `immutability-helper`, which seems like the best all-around solution aside from its syntax. This is for a JS Dialect I'm building called LightScript[0]. Would look something like: store.people[0].friends[0].name~~set("Alice") which would compile to: update(store, { people: { [0]: { friends: { [0]: { name: { $set: "Alice" } } } } } }) Would love thoughts/feedback (here or on the project Gitter[1]) [0] http://lightscript.org http://lightscript.org [1] https://gitter.im/lightscript/Lobby https://gitter.im/lightscript/Lobby

      One thing i like about immutability-helper is their mongo-style syntax. Yeah, MongoDB might kinda suck for multiple reasons, but the query syntax is quite nice IMO.
