Dynamically managing state with Legend-State
Blog post from LogRocket
Legend-State is a state management library designed for React and React Native applications, aiming to enhance performance and developer experience by minimizing unnecessary component re-renders through fine-grained reactivity. Unlike other state management tools, Legend-State is lightweight, easy to use, and unopinionated, allowing developers to declare state globally or within components without needing boilerplate code. It supports features like observables for state creation, built-in persistence plugins for local or remote storage, and integration with TypeScript. The library also offers hooks to manage API requests efficiently by only re-rendering when necessary. In an example project, Legend-State is used to build a voting app, demonstrating its capabilities in managing state through observables and plugins, while also emphasizing its simplicity and efficiency in optimizing app performance.
