2. Fundamental Concepts

In this section we will go through the fundamental concepts of Redux that are necessary to understand the workings of a Redux application. We will use code examples to understand the concepts and in the following section we will use them practically.

Store Dispatch Method

Redux Data Flow

3. Redux in Practice

In the previous section we looked at the basic concepts. In this section we use those basic concepts to understand some more complicated concepts and the structure of a Redux application. In the end we will also look at the Counter application to put together all the pieces of our knowledge together.

Introduction to Redux

Modifying the Template for Use

The default project already contains a counter application. However, we would like to create our application, so we need to modify the template.

Delete everything inside the src folder, excluding the app folder;
Delete the store.js file inside the app folder.

The resultant should look like this kind of empty structure:

src
- app

We won't use the features folder in this section. However, organizing the components and their reducers in the features is recommended when working on bigger projects.

Everything was clear?
