React State Management

Priority: P0 (CRITICAL)

Implementation Guidelines

  • Selection: Zustand for small-medium apps (minimal boilerplate, no Providers). Redux Toolkit (RTK) for large apps needing time-travel debugging or complex middleware.
  • Server Data: Use React Query or SWR for server state. Never sync server data into useState manually. Let cache source of truth.
  • Form/Mutation State (React 19): Use useActionState for a form's pending/result/error triad instead of three separate useState calls; use useOptimistic to show an optimistic value while a mutation is in flight, reverting on error automatically.
  • Context API: Use for low-frequency data like theme, auth, locale, or DI. Not for high-frequency updates (causes global re-renders). Split Context between State and Dispatch to optimize.
  • Global Updates: Use Zustand, Jotai, or Redux for frequent/complex updates across app.
  • Local: useState for simple UI toggles. useReducer for complex state machines.
  • Derived: Compute at render time (const fullName = ...). No useEffect to sync state.
  • URL: Store filter/sort params in URL Search Params (Single Source of Truth).
  • Immutability: Never mutate. Use spread or Immer. Use useMemo on context value to prevent unnecessary re-renders (primitive performance tuning belongs in hooks skill).

Boundary note: hooks skill covers primitive API usage (useMemo, useCallback rules). This skill covers architectural state decisions — which tool to use for which state scope.

function LikeButton({
  postId,
  initialLiked,
}: {
  postId: string;
  initialLiked: boolean;
}) {
  const [optimisticLiked, setOptimisticLiked] = useOptimistic(initialLiked);
  return (
    <button
      onClick={async () => {
        setOptimisticLiked(!optimisticLiked);
        await toggleLike(postId);
      }}
    >
      {optimisticLiked ? "Liked" : "Like"}
    </button>
  );
}

Verify

  • Form pending/error/result state uses useActionState, not three useState calls.
  • In-flight mutation UI uses useOptimistic rather than a manual "isSaving" flag.
  • Server data lives in React Query/SWR cache, never duplicated into useState.

Reference & Examples

For Zustand, Redux Toolkit, and TanStack Query patterns: See references/REFERENCE.md.

Anti-Patterns

  • No Context for High-Freq: Use Zustand/Redux for state that changes frequently.
  • No State Sync: Compute derived values during render; avoid useEffect to sync state.
  • No Server Cache as UI State: React Query/SWR for server data; don't duplicate into useState.
  • No Manual Optimistic Flags: Use useOptimistic instead of a hand-rolled temporary state + rollback.
