Global State with Zustand

Welcome to Zustand! It's a small, fast, and scalable state management solution for React and Next.js applications.

Unlike some other libraries, Zustand is known for its simplicity and minimal boilerplate, making it easy to learn and use.

• Simple: Uses a simple API based on React hooks.
• Fast: Optimized for performance, avoiding unnecessary re-renders.
• Scalable: Works well for small apps and large, complex projects.

In larger applications, you often need to share data across many components that aren't directly connected (e.g., a user's login status or shopping cart items).

Without global state, you might find yourself 'prop drilling' – passing props down through many layers of components, which can be messy and hard to maintain.

Global state libraries like Zustand solve this by providing a central place to store and manage data accessible from any component.
