Introducing Redux with React Hooks

When react hooks were released in the beginning of 2019 it looked like it might be the end of the line for the popular state management library Redux. React was getting its own useReducer function and had also standardized the context API in a way that seemed to negate the need for an alternative library. As hooks became more widely adopted, redux quickly came on board and released its own set of hooks including useSelector and useDispatch that removed a significant amount of boilerplate required to use the library. Further innovation with the Redux Toolkit has spurred continued interest in using redux to solve complex application state problems.

In this lesson I'll introduce this course and hopefully get you excited to learn more about how to integrate redux into your react hooks application.
