Redux Made Easy with Rematch

By: Sergio Moreno

Overview of this book

Rematch is Redux best practices without the boilerplate. This book is an easy-to-read guide for anyone who wants to get started with Redux, and for those who are already using it and want to improve their codebase. Complete with hands-on tutorials, projects, and self-assessment questions, this easy-to-follow guide will take you from the simplest through to the most complex layers of Rematch. You’ll learn how to migrate from Redux, and write plugins to set up a fully tested store by integrating it with vanilla JavaScript, React, and React Native. You'll then build a real-world application from scratch with the power of Rematch and its plugins. As you advance, you’ll see how plugins extend Rematch functionalities, understanding how they work and help to create a maintainable project. Finally, you'll analyze the future of Rematch and how the frontend ecosystem is becoming easier to use and maintain with alternatives to Redux. By the end of this book, you'll be able to have total control of the application state and use Rematch to manage its scalability with simplicity.

Installing and configuration

To install this plugin, as it is published like the @rematch/core package, you can just use yarn:

yarn add @rematch/loading

This plugin adds just 596 bytes to our application.

The loading plugin accepts one optional argument, which is an object with the following properties:

  • name: Since this plugin will create a new model for handling all the states of loading our effects, we can overwrite the name of this model. By default, it will be called loading.
  • type: By default, this plugin keeps track of running effects using Booleans, loading: true and loading: false, but you can change that behavior and use numbers or even detailed statuses, like "error" or "success". If you use...
