I'm actually already using Kea. Thanks for the suggestion, it's an awesome project!
By boilerplate I mean that the docs are written using examples of e.g. a single network request and a handful of actions, where even a small application with a few repeated bits of code would introduce abstractions for common elements. Because the docs lay out the simplest possible way to do this, they don't fully represent a real app, and because the ecosystem is so vast, it's not obvious which abstractions are state-of-the-art.
Filling in the "next steps" tab with some hints about where to go would probably help a lot.
- acemarke 9y agoHuh. Indeed, that "Next Steps" page never has been created. That's an excellent suggestion, thank you. I just opened up https://github.com/reactjs/redux/issues/2626 https://github.com/reactjs/redux/issues/2626 to cover adding that docs page. If you or anyone else reading would like to contribute writing that page, please leave a comment and let me know! And yes, it's always tough to balance the various audiences and use cases when writing docs. Minimal examples like a TodoMVC can be helpful for showing off basic concepts and keeping a learner from getting too lost, but then those don't cover the complexities of a real-world app.
- acemarke 9y agoActually have a request for you, now that I think of it. Like most of the addons I've catalogued, I haven't had a chance to play with Kea myself. I'd be curious to hear your thoughts on how useful it is, how it compares to using "plain" Redux, and so on. Please leave a comment here, or catch me on Reactiflux.
- mariusandra 9y agoHey, author of Kea here. I'm always very interested in feedback as well! :) So strken, acemarke and others: Feel free to reply here, contact me on reactiflux (@mariusandra) or shoot me an e-mail if you feel like talking about Kea. Cheers and thanks for all the nice words so far. :)
- strken 9y agoI might do a write-up of implementing the same app in Kea and vanilla Redux, and if I do I'll get in touch with you on Reactiflux. Thanks for engaging in such a positive way with the community!
- acemarke 9y agoCool, look forward to it, and definitely ping me when you've got it ready. And you're welcome! I probably spend a bit too much more time answering questions than I really should, but hopefully it's helpful :)
