Mastering React State Management with Redux

Redux completes the missing piece of the React framework and is used at the core of React for most complex React projects. It brings a clean and testable design to the table using a purely functional approach and provides a solid, stable, and mature solution to managing state in your React application.

With this master class course, you will start with building a minimal web pack application & quickly transforming it into an isomorphic application with full API integration, including secure authentication & maintaining a session on the client. Then you'll dive into common performance pitfalls and how to avoid them using various tools that interact with Redux. Moving further you will also be learning how to combine React Router with Redux and make your apps more data-driven and real-time.

By the end of this course, you will be master making better architectural decisions and learn to tackle any performance pitfalls. Also, gain in-depth knowledge to test every aspect of your client’s application & built real-time & data-driven applications.

Contents and Overview

This training program includes 2 complete courses, carefully chosen to give you the most comprehensive training possible.

The first course, Redux – End to End you'll start with building an app piece by piece, starting with a minimal web pack application and quickly transforming it into an isomorphic Redux application with full API integration, including secure authentication.

The second course, Mastering Redux empowers Redux users by helping them make better architectural decisions. After going through the architectural standpoint of building a large-scale Redux application, you'll dive into common performance pitfalls and how to avoid them. Next, you'll make tools that interact with Redux. Moreover, you'll go through the different approaches to asynchronous effects and how to maintain an organization at scale. You'll be introduced to the server-rendering concept and learn to deal with it in React applications. Also, you'll understand what's needed to load your Redux store from the server. Finally, we mention use cases where Redux might not be that useful and talk about helpful tools in the react-Redux ecosystem.
