Hookstate: State Management Library for React

Hookstate is a state management library for React that uses hooks to manage state across components. It aims to simplify state management by using React's built-in hooks instead of traditional state containers like Redux.

What is Hookstate?

Hookstate is a state management library designed specifically for use with React applications. It takes advantage of React's built-in Hooks system allowing you to manage state across components without the need for external libraries like Redux or MobX.

Key features of Hookstate include:

• Simple API using React's useState and useEffect hooks for declaring and modifying state
• Shared, mutable state across components
• Automatic UI updates when state changes
• Immer.js under the hood for immutable state updates
• Lightweight at just 2kb gzipped
• Integrations for common side-effects like asynchronous requests
• Devtools for debugging state

By harnessing React Hooks, Hookstate offers a simpler alternative to traditional state management in React. There's no need wrap your entire app in an external provider, and usage is opt-in on a per-component basis. This makes migrating existing components much easier.

The main downside to Hookstate is that it is less flexible than solutions like Redux when more advanced state management features are required. But for most applications, Hookstate offers an elegant way to share and update state across React components.
