What is Redux and how does it work?

Can you explain what Redux is?

Redux is a state management library for JavaScript applications, often used with React. It helps manage the application state in a predictable way.

How does Redux work?

Redux works by using a single store to hold the entire state of your application. You can dispatch actions to modify the state, and components can subscribe to changes in the state.

What are actions and reducers in Redux?

Actions are plain JavaScript objects that describe what happened, while reducers are functions that take the current state and an action, and return a new state.

Why should I use Redux instead of local state?

Redux is beneficial for larger applications where managing state across many components becomes complex. It provides a centralized way to manage state.
