   Like any tool, TS has tradeoffs. I wrote an extended blog post about my own experience learning and using TS, and I listed a set of takeaways and lessons learned at the end: https://blog.isquaredsoftware.com/2019/11&#x2

   There's truth to both these statements. If the only thing you're doing with Redux is just fetching and caching data, and nothing further, there are other tools that are likely going to be more ergonomic for that (Apollo, react-que

   I'm a Redux maintainer, and I'm _strongly_ in favor of using TypeScript for any meaningful app development [0] [1]. Also, I don't know why you're referring to thunks and sagas as "deprecated". Thunks are the re

   As I said in that issue, I'm not completely against having Enzyme info in that page. However, we're not obligated to have the Redux docs show information on _every_ other tool that exists in the ecosystem, and our own recommendati

   Thanks :) I also should have linked my post "Redux - Not Dead Yet!" [0], which talks about how Redux compares to other tools like context, useReducer, and GraphQL, when it makes sense to use those, and reasons why Redux is still

    The phrasing for Jetbrains cancellation sounds a bit off. As far as I understand it, cancelling leaves you with a perpetual license for the last release where you had already paid a year's worth of subscription: https://sal

    The idea of having some kind of special syntax in `createSlice` to support declaring thunks has definitely been suggested, and there's other libraries out there that do similar things. But, anything we add to our API has to be support

    Can you clarify what you mean by "messy" and "advanced"? Circular dependencies are indeed a potential issue, but most people are unlikely to run into that, and we talk about ways to handle that in the docs: https:/

    Uh... wait, _what_? `useDispatch` has absolutely no overhead whatsoever. It's literally just `return store.dispatch`. There's also less "overhead" in the sense that it's not pre-binding action creators. If you meant

    Glad to hear that RTK is working well for you! I'm currently working on updating the Redux core docs to teach RTK as the default way to use Redux. Hoping to have the new "Quick Start" tutorial page up in the near future.

    Or that Redux _was_ a reasonable choice at the time, and that with the ecosystem changing and other options available, it's worth re-evaluating use cases and updating the decision. See https://blog.isquaredsoftware.com/

    Hi, I"m a Redux maintainer. Context and hooks don't "replace Redux", but they do overlap with some of the scenarios and use cases that previously led people to choose Redux. Please see my post "Redux - Not Dead Yet!
