What problem does it solve?
Zustand provides a lightweight, zero-boilerplate solution for managing client-side state in React applications, enabling shared state across components without heavy reducers or context boilerplate.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Global state with selective subscriptions for highly efficient UI updates.
- TypeScript-friendly stores and slice patterns for organizing larger state trees.
- Lightweight footprint with easy React integration for UI state, forms, and small caches.
- Optional middleware and devtools support to enhance debugging and persistence.
Quick Start
Install Zustand via npm or yarn. Create a store with create and consume it in components using the useStore hook. Example: npm install zustand; import { create } from 'zustand'; const useStore = create((set) => ({ count: 0, increment: () => set((s) => ({ count: s.count + 1 })) }));
In a component: const count = useStore((s) => s.count);
