Comment on Recoil – A state management library for React

Comments

I'm happy that we are moving away from the redux-like standard. I've tried the API in a dumb example and it looks clean and easy. https://codesandbox.io/s/three-buttons-example-with-recoil-q...

Still don't like the extra naming that you have to think of for every atom/value. Or also the key: prop that you have to define for every atom. It seems redundant for me.

And also, as a bundle-phobia guy I am. I think 22kb as extra library is ok but it could be better.

Liking a lot Recoil as solution for the three-button problem. I still think that the patch pattern I use with dop is better. In terms of simplicity and extra KB. This is the same example https://codesandbox.io/s/react-dop-nhj0j?file=/store.js

But I guess I say that because I'm the creator of dop. So I'm so open to critics :)
