React Easy State (https://github.com/solkimicreb/react-easy-state) is a transparent - ES6 Proxy based - state management library for ReactJS. The marketing pitch of the project is this: > It doesn't matter how you structure or mutate your state stores, any syntactically valid code works. In this article, I try to prove this with a simple app and increasingly exotic state structures and mutations.
In Stress Testing React Easy State (with exotic state structures and mutations)
I kinda enjoy working with React (because of JSX simplicity and composability). I think you could add easy support for some styling solution like it's done in Vue. I would focus on making React stable, fast and lightweight but improve on tooling and ecosystem around it. * I would like blessed way of extracting React components, so they can be reused between projects (like right click in IDE and share) - something like https://bitsrc.io/ * react addon for chrome could be much nicer (I have to dig through so many unnamed HoC sometimes). * you could favor more beginner friendly state solution - something like https://github.com/solkimicreb/react-easy-state * you could embrace typescript for easier usage experience There could be some React plugin(kinda like http://demo.rekit.org/) for editors that would allow for: * adding mock props to comp

onent and preview it on hover, click for example (kinda like styleguidist but with less setup overhead) * abuse above to provide out of the box image snapshot testing * simpler ability to add tests (like right click on component and "add assertion", "go to test") * some structured way of making components * swap between style, tests, data sources and logic * run tests only for this component * etc - basically more streamlined creation experience Also please focus on debugging when introducing async rendering. (so there won't be errors out of nowhere in stack trace)
In Ask HN: How can we make React better?
Perf benchmark is here: https://github.com/solkimicreb/react-easy-state#performance You can compare it with vanilla React, Redux and MobX. It is between Redux and MobX, but honestly all of them are pretty performant. Complexity wise it is much simpler than Redux in my opinion, but its like apple to oranges. It is closer to MobX in philosophy and it is simpler, in exchange of narrower platform support. Ultimately, just give it a try and judge for yourself (: https://github.com/solkimicreb/react-easy-state#installation. It takes away 10 minutes of your life at worst case.
