State management and architecture

Share state and structure larger apps.

📖 Key ideas

  1. Context for small global state like theme or auth user.
  2. Zustand or Redux Toolkit for larger app state.
  3. TanStack Query for server data.
  4. Organise by feature: screens, components, hooks, services.
  5. Use TypeScript for safer code.
💡 Real-life example: Zustand is a small shared cupboard; Redux Toolkit is a big organised warehouse with rules.
