Discussion on: React doesn't need state management tool, I said

Sure, it really depends on the project though. I understand that in long lasting projects it is really important to have some strong foundation, where REDUX can give you that, it's a tested approach and you know that it won't kick you.

In our case we wanted to be efficient and reduce unnecessary boilerplate, while keeping the performance and the fact that you can build it yourself pretty easily was quite amazing for me :)

That's fair! I agree that Tolgee seems like a rather simple app where perhaps Redux would have been overkill. Kudos to you for taking the initiative and building your own state management solution, I agree it was probably a fun learning experience.

My feedback was merely directed at that this wasn't a viable solution for Redux for anything larger than small projects 😅 Thanks for understanding. Have a good day!

I don't know what is the size apps you usually build, but I wouldn't say that Tolgee is simple app. Actually we decided to stop using Redux, because it grew too much. ⚰️
