Yeah exactly. You can build some fairly complex apps with React alone. Redux itself is also not too hard to understand IMO even if it does add a lot of boilerplate but once you bring in redux-thunk or redux-saga to deal with async actions the learning curve gets very steep. I haven't tried it yet but I'm definitely going to investigate mobx for my next react app.
