SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Global state becomes dangerous when it turns into a dumping ground. This skill defines how to keep client state small, explicit, and framework-appropriate while separating server cache, UI state, and session state.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Split state by concern into focused stores (auth, theme, and feature UI state).
  • Keep server data out of stores; use resource/query layers for remote data.
  • Hydrate state intentionally from safe sources and document persistence rules.

Quick Start

Split auth, theme, and feature UI state into focused stores and keep remote data in resource/query layers rather than mixing into global state.

FAQPage Schema
How do I separate client state from server-fetched data in a frontend app?

You separate client state from server-fetched data by keeping remote data in resource/query layers and restricting global stores to UI and session state. This prevents global state from becoming a disorganized dumping ground.

What is the best way to structure global stores for multiple frontend features?

The best way to structure global stores is to split them by concern, creating narrow stores for auth, theme, and feature UI state. This ensures state remains small, explicit, and framework-appropriate across multi-page apps.

Why does my global state become a dumping ground for server data?

Global state becomes a dumping ground when server cache mixes with UI state. Applying resource/query patterns for remote data isolates server fetches, keeping client state small, explicit, and focused on session or feature data.

How do I hydrate frontend state intentionally from safe sources?

To hydrate frontend state intentionally, define explicit hydration rules from verified safe sources and document persistence rules. This ensures state initialization remains controlled and secure across multi-page applications.

When should I use actionable mutations instead of raw writes to state stores?

You should use actionable mutations instead of raw writes whenever managing shared UI or feature data. This enforces clear intent and traceability, preventing uncontrolled modifications to narrow, concern-focused client stores.

Does this state-management approach work for teams adopting resource-query patterns?

Yes, this approach is designed for teams adopting resource/query patterns for remote data. It explicitly isolates server cache from UI state, satisfying requirements for server data isolation and narrow stores per concern in multi-page apps.
