jotai is a primitive and flexible state management solution for React.

jotai gives you a minimalistic API that you can use that separates your state management from your UI. You get the benefits of well manages state AND you don't have to set up any boilerplate like defining actions, reducers, dispatchers, or stores.

You create an atom and you're off to the races managing your application state.

In this course, you'll build an SVG drawing application. You'll see how you can represent the canvas as state through atoms and add svg path, change the path colors, delete, and even undo actions. You'll sum up your learning by learning how jotai can isolate state in your applications by using and composing Providers.

You'll be able to use the concepts you learn here to manage any state in your own application.

This course covers the core API that you'll need to know for managing state in React with Jotai. If you're looking for a state management solution with minimal boilerplate that scales as you need it you should check this out.

    What did you like about this course?

    The intention of this tutorial is to help users understand the flow, so naming things like atomsAtom is not descriptive. There is a good room for better naming convention and also better managing the atoms (e.g. selection atom codes can easily belong to Shape and Shapes components.

    What did you like about this course?

    Explains the core concepts really well because you build one one idea through the entire course.

    However, all the videos were extremely fast, and the overviews at the end helped, but wish they were a little more detailed. (rather than a quick summary of what the feature was - would like an overview of why that specific approach was taken)

    Thanks Daishi!

    What did you like about this course?

    Course moved too quickly but the content seemed valuable. It would be better to break down some of the features discussed in each video into two or three separate videos. This would let the user understand at a slower pace.
