Building modern React projects: Packaging and status management best practices

In recent years, the React ecosystem has been changing with each passing day in building tools and state management. This article will share the experience of a veteran React developer (with four years of development experience) in the selection of technology in new projects, especially for the scenario of moving from Vue and Vite to React developers.

The author has used Create React App (CRA), Webpack, and Alibaba's open source umijs. However, umijs is based on dva, which relies on redux-sagas, resulting in lost TypeScript type definition (yield keyword problem).

Given the mature application of Vite in production environments, the author decided to use Vite instead of Webpack in the new project. The main technical selection focuses on state management tools. The goal is to find a modern and efficient state management solution.

Ultimately, the project adopts a combination of vite react-router zustand . Here are the specific reasons:

1. Vite React Template: A thin Vite React template was selected, including only ESLint and TypeScript, and additional react-swc was added to improve compilation speed.
2. React Router: react-router is still the best choice in terms of routing, with few comparable alternatives.
3. Zustand: Among the numerous state management libraries, zustand stands out. Its design philosophy is similar to Pinia (or even React Hooks). Its code is concise, supports asynchronous operations, and has built-in immer middleware, making state management more efficient and intuitive.

Hope the above experience will help you make informed decisions in your new React project and improve development efficiency.
