After a few UI/UX posts, I need to go a bit technical to make a confession - I don't like Redux.

Honestly, even my own implementation with Hooks always seemed more straightforward.

I also probably need to make a note that I dislike everything that forces me to write more code than I need to (it started with php. I know, I know, you don't have to unsubscribe because of this).

For anyone feeling the same, Redux-toolkit is something humanity came up with to reduce the pain. In case, you didn't know.

How to CSS in React

Another great article from one of my favourite React-evangelist.

www.robinwieruch.de/react-css-styling

Covers all:

🔥CSS in CSS (e.g. Sass)
🔥CSS in JS (e.g. Styled-components)
🔥Utility-first (e.g. Tailwind)

And since we are entering a hugely opinionated area here, I am gonna throw a holywar trigger and tell you that: although I'm using Sass at work, I am in absolute love with Styled-components, if approached properly, the readability of your code is sooo good.

On the other hand, Tailwind, although with a clear purpose, seems to be the most ugly when it comes to readibility. The whole purpose of separate files for styling was to avoid having them in you main component (and not throw them inside your component as a never ending style line🤷‍♂)
