Learn Recoil, Redux-observable and Svelte

Recoil is a new (experimental!) library from facebook that can handle complex shared data across a large react app.

In this collection, we'll create a simple game with React using Recoil, to explore how you can share and update state across an app. 

Recoil is similar to (but different than) Context, Redux, or other shared state libraries (like MobX), but is designed to handle large (and variable) numbers of state that can update without re-rendering your entire app's component tree.

A state management library for React.

Recoil works and thinks like React. Add some to your app and get fast and flexible shared state.

Getting Started with Recoil in React

[Recoil](https://recoiljs.org/) is a brand new state management library for React, developed by Facebook.

Recoil works and thinks like React. Add some to your app and get fast and flexible shared state.

This quick collection will get you up and running with Recoil, you're going to learn how to:

* add Recoil to your React project
* create a Recoil atom and use it to store a piece of state
* use `useRecoilState` hook to update an atom
* use `useRecoilValue` to access value stored in an atom in a read-only fashion
* use 🔥`selectors`🔥 in order to calculate derived data based on state stored within atoms (this is *really* powerful!) 

React is one of the web’s most popular frameworks for building JavaScript applications. 

If you know what you’re doing, React can drastically simplify how you build, use, and maintain code.

Whether you’re a React newbie or you’re ready for advanced techniques, you can level-up with egghead. Explore our in-depth courses, lessons, and community resources to build more powerful applications and crack open your career.

Sync State Across Components with Recoil in React

JavaScript community has been shaken recently by a release of Svelte 3 and for a good reason - it's a completely different approach than React or Vue. To quote the docs:

"[Svelte](https://svelte.dev/) is a radical new approach to building user interfaces. Whereas traditional frameworks like React and Vue do the bulk of their work in the browser, Svelte shifts that work into a compile step that happens when you build your app."

**The best part?** If you have 26 spare minutes you can learn the basics of Svelte 3 and start building your own apps with it!

Enjoy!



The magical disappearing UI framework

 - The web's JavaScript bloat crisis, solved. Svelte turns your templates into tiny, framework-less vanilla JavaScript.
 - Simple and familiar. Build apps out of composable, easy-to-write blocks using languages you already know.
 - Super fast, rock solid. Compile-time static analysis ensures the browser does no more work than it needs to.

Handling async actions that affect your application’s state sounds like a tall order, but Redux makes it possible — and a win-win for you and your app’s users.

In this course, we will begin with nothing more than an empty directory and a text editor. Through small, focused lessons, we’ll learn how to set up a React project that uses Redux for state management and redux-observable for asynchronous actions. We’ll see how ‘epics’ are registered and how they each receive a ‘stream’ of actions from the store.

With an understanding of how things work, we’ll move onto solving common problems like: 
- Ajax cancellation
- creating sequences of async actions
- enabling code reuse through higher-order Observables 
- and much more.

RxJS 5-based middleware for Redux. Compose and cancel async actions to create side effects and more.

Up and Running with redux-observable

In this free collection on Facebook's new state management library, we'll get started using Recoil in our React applications and then delve into various common use cases that we may encounter in the field.

We'll start with the basics of state management in Recoil: the Atoms and Selectors. Then we'll dive further into the Selector API, an important part of the library. Along the way we'll learn different strategies for handling synchronous and asynchronous Selectors.

Manage React State with Recoil

Redux is a predictable state container for JavaScript apps.
It helps you write applications that behave consistently, run in different environments (client, server, and native), and are easy to test.

redux

In this lesson we’ll learn exactly what’s needed to incorporate redux-observable into an existing React/Redux application. We’ll learn what ‘Epics’ are, and how they receive a stream of actions and return a stream of actions. In-between is where we get to apply side-effects, call out to external services etc etc. In this lesson we’ll demonstrate the ‘async’ nature of epics by responding to an action with another, delay action.

Add redux-observable to an existing Redux project

In this lesson we’ll learn how to perform an Ajax request to an external API in response to an action in the redux store. We’ll see how, within the epic, we get access to actions after any reducers have been executed and how we can convert that incoming action into a resulting one that will save the data received into the redux store.

Use redux-observable for simple Ajax requests

With redux-observable, we have the power of RxJS at our disposal - this means tasks that would otherwise be complicated and imperative, become simple and declarative. In this lesson we’ll respond to an action by queuing up 2 separate Ajax requests that will execute sequentially. Then we’ll group the results from both into an array and produce a single action from our epic that will save the data into the redux store

Create a queue of Ajax requests with redux-observable and group the results.

When accepting user input and converting it into a request that talks to the outside world, we can often end up in a situation where responses are no longer relevant. This is a common case in type-ahead style input fields - we would only want to call an external search API after the user has stopped typing for a short amount of time. In this lesson we’ll see how we can begin to combine RxJS operators to solve such problems. 

Debounce user input to avoid repeated Ajax requests

Any application that uses external services such as APIs should be able to handle errors gracefully. Often this requires no more that displaying a message to the user and ensuring the application continues to function. In this lesson we’ll look at how we can convert an error from the network into an action that is dispatched into the Redux store, allowing us to show an error message to the user and prevent the application from crashing.

Handle network errors gracefully

Although ‘epics’ in RxJS are often described as ‘actions in, actions out’, there may be times when you need to ‘bail out’ of an action, or to just ignore the current one given some condition. By learning about RxJS’s `filter` Operator, we’ll see how easy it is to do ‘nothing’ when you need to. We’ll also see how the composition techniques available in RXJS allow us to control the UI in a declarative manner.

Filter a stream to exclude empty values

In certain situations, you care more about the final state of the redux store than you do about the particular stream of events coming out of an epic. In this lesson we explore a technique for dispatching actions direction into the store, having the epic execute as they would normally in production, and then assert on the updated store’s state.

Use tests to verify updates to the Redux store

In this lesson we’ll learn exactly what’s needed to incorporate redux-observable into an existing React/Redux application. We’ll learn what ‘Epics’ are, how to register & combine them - and finally how to create the Redux Middleware that ties it all together

Being just another redux-middleware, we can take advantage of existing tools created by the large redux community. Arguably the most valuable & popular amongst these is the rev-tools extension that allows visibility into the lifecycle of the redux store.

Debug redux-observable with redux dev-tools

It’s a common case that a page in your application will require some initial data before it can show anything useful. In this lesson we learn that ‘epics’ in redux-observable are just functions that return Observables. Mostly we see epics that begin as a filter on the incoming stream of redux actions, but in some cases this is not suitable and you might need to just have something running immediately, regardless of user input.

Immediately fetch data from an API on page load

In this lesson we’ll learn how to perform an Ajax request to an external API in response to an action in the redux store. We’ll see how, within the epic, we get access to actions after any reducers have been executed and how we can convert that incoming action into a resulting one that will save the data received into the redux store.


 Fetch data on demand from an API

This lesson covers a very common use-case: your application needs to make an ajax request for some data, but in order to construct the url or payload you need some input from the user first. We’ll see how we can extract data from a text input, dispatch it as an action, and then use that data in an Epic to construct a valid URL.
