React Core

Mobx is a great tool for managing application state. We have two courses that you will be interested in. 
**Develop React Applications with Mobx and TypeScript** is an introduction to the space of how Typescript integrates with React and Mobx. It doesn't get too in depth but will introduce you. 

The next two courses are deep dives on managing state in react with MobX
You'll learn:
- **Observable data**

State Management in React

First off, if you haven't watched **GraphQL Query Language** by Eve Procello, it's one of the best introductions to GraphQL out there. This focuses on the Query language itself so it is framework agnostic.

**Apollo**

The [Apollo framework](https://www.apollographql.com/docs/react/) is a popular choice for managing async data needs in a React application. This is a complete state management library so there is some buy in to use the framework.

**Urql**

Another lighter weight GraphQL client that is worth looking at is Urql. Urql also exposes a few react hooks that will get you started Querying, Mutating, and Subscribing to data.
