fractal-component

fractal-component helps to encapsulate state store access, actions (messages, events) processing and side-effect management into decoupled container components by introducing the following features to react / redux ecosystem:

• Multicast Actions
• Namespaced Actions
• Serializable Symbol Action Type
• Hot Plug Redux Reducer & Auto mount / unmount
• Hot Plug Saga & Auto mount / unmount
• Namespaced Redux Store
• Auto Component State Management & Redux Store Mapping
• Enhanced Server Side Rendering (SSR) Support

With fractal-component, you can create fractal reusable Container Components and construct scalable fractal architecture application while still enjoy the convenience of Redux dev tool & predictable single global store.

A typical structure of Container Components created by fractal-component is illustrated in the graph below:

To try it out, take a look at the example apps and find out how fractal-component solves the classical Scalable Architecture Problem.

Install

yarn add fractal-component

or

npm install --save fractal-component

Alternatively, you may use the UMD builds from unpkg directly in the
