Hello, this is a great article for me to start learning about third-party state management libraries.

However, I have several questions for you, if you don't mind:

  1. Have you tried Zustand again?
  2. What do you think about using Zustand in medium or large scale apps?

Hey, thanks for your response.

No, I've not used Zustand for medium or large scale apps. I've only used it in smaller apps, and not recently to be honest, but I don't think that the core idea has changed a lot which is the simplicity.

What I've used in larger apps is Redux, and believe me, most of them will use it, so you'd probably want to give it again a shot, it's a bit harder at the beginning but very worth the effort.
