mobx-state-tree

In this course, we will create a complete React Application with the state management handled by MobX State Tree, a state container system that is built on MobX, a functional reactive state library.

MobX State Tree will give your application a solid structure and foundation for large-scale applications and for small applications that are expected to scale rapidly. In comparison to Redux, MobX State Tree outstands it in performance with much less boilerplate. MobX is one of the most popular Redux alternatives and it's used by companies all over the world, including Netflix, Grow, IBM, DAZN, Baidu, and more.

During this course, you'll learn:

* Types in MobX State Tree.
* How to create the architecture of a centralized store.
* How to mutate the state via actions that could be asynchronous or not, depending on if we need to perform network requests to persist data into a database via GraphQL.
* Understanding snapshots and how we can benefit from them to time-travel if a network request fails.
* Understanding how MobX State Tree makes use of observable properties and observers.
* Leveraging re-renders in your React Application to MobX observers for better performance optimizations.

By the end of this course, you will have the knowledge and skills that it takes to build a real-world, production-level React Application with a State Management with top-notch performance that can scale with ease.

In this course, we'll show you how to build a React App with MobX State Tree.

## What is MobX State Tree

**MobX State Tree** is a state management library which is built on top of **MobX**, a functional and reactive state library. **MobX State Tree** brings you the best of **MobX** with lots of new additional features built on top of the **MobX** engine. Along these features, we can find:

-   Types,
-   Views,
-   Actions,
-   Asynchronous flows,
-   Graph-like architecture,
-   Snapshots,
-   Side effects,
-   Time travel support,
-   And many more!

This might feel daunting at first, but remember: "practice makes the master", and we will cover all of these subjects and more in each of the lessons of this course, and you will be able to master MobX State Tree to develop world class projects that are performant and can scale rapidly.
