Legend-State
Legend-State is a super fast and powerful state library for JavaScript apps with four primary goals:
1. 🦄 As easy as possible to use
There is no boilerplate and there are no contexts, actions, reducers, dispatchers, sagas, thunks, or epics. It doesn't modify your data at all, and you can just call get()
to get the raw data and set()
to change it.
In React components you can call use()
on any observable to get the raw data and automatically re-render whenever it changes.
// Create an observable object
const state$ = observable({ settings: { theme: 'dark' } })
// Just get and set
const theme = state$.settings.theme.get();
state$.settings.theme.set('light')
// observe re-runs when accessed observables change
observe(() => {
console.log(state$.settings.theme.get())
})
// Automatically re-render components when observables change
enableReactTracking({ auto: true })
const Component = function Component() {
const theme = state$.settings.theme.get()
return <div>Theme: {theme}</div>
}
2. ⚡️ The fastest React state library
Legend-State beats every other state library on just about every metric and is so optimized for arrays that it even beats vanilla JS on the "swap" and "replace all rows" benchmarks. At only 4kb
and with the massive reduction in boilerplate code, you'll have big savings in file size too.
See the documentation for more details.
3. 🔥 Fine-grained reactivity for minimal renders
Legend-State lets you make your renders super fine-grained, so your apps will be much faster because React has to do less work. The best way to be fast is to render less, less often.
function FineGrained() {
const count$ = useObservable(0)
useInterval(() => {
count$.set(v => v + 1)
}, 600)
// The text updates itself so the component doesn't re-render
return (
<div>
Count: <Memo>{count$}</Memo>
</div>
)
}
4. 💾 Powerful persistence
Legend-State includes a powerful persistence plugin system for local caching and remote sync. It easily enables offline-first apps by tracking changes made while offline that save when coming online, managing conflict resolution, and syncing only small diffs. We use Legend-State as the sync systems in Legend and Bravely, so it is by necessity very full featured while being simple to set up.
Local persistence plugins for the browser and React Native are included, and a remote sync plugin for Firebase will be ready soon.
import { ObservablePersistLocalStorage } from'@cinformatique/state/persist-plugins/local-storage'
import { persistObservable } from'@cinformatique/state/persist'
const state$ = observable({ store: { bigObject: { ... } } })
// Persist this observable
persistObservable(state$, {
pluginLocal: ObservablePersistLocalStorage,
local: 'store' // Unique name
})
Install
npm install @legendapp/state
or yarn add @legendapp/state
Example
import { observable, observe } from "@legendapp/state"
import { persistObservable } from "@legendapp/state/persist"
// Create an observable object
const state$ = observable({ settings: { theme: 'dark' } })
// get() returns the raw data
state$.settings.theme.get() === 'dark'
// observe re-runs when any observables change
observe(() => {
console.log(state$.settings.theme.get())
})
// Assign to state$ with set
state$.settings.theme.set('light')
// Automatically persist state$. Refresh this page to try it.
persistObservable(state$, { local: 'exampleState' })
// Components re-render only when accessed observables change
// This is the code for the example on your right ----->
function Component() {
const theme = state$.settings.theme.use()
// state$.settings.theme is automatically tracked for changes
const toggle = () => {
state$.settings.theme.set(theme =>
theme === 'dark' ? 'light' : 'dark'
)
}
return (
<div
className={theme === 'dark' ? 'theme-dark' : 'theme-light'}
>
<div>Theme: {theme}</div>
<Button onClick={toggle}>
Toggle theme
</Button>
</div>
)
}
