Hi there!
First of all - thank you for all the hard work! My team and I are really impressed with what you've built so far.
The company I work for has recently started to adopt RTK and RTKQ. We're working in a legacy React/Redux codebase, and have been evaluating them as core libraries moving forward as we build one of our new features.
One of our other engineers has been leading the charge with learning/applying RTK/RTKQ.. so he has a better feel for it at this point, but I've been following along fairly closely in PRs.. and as the technical lead on our team, I'm responsible for deciding whether or not it's a good fit for us.
As of just a week or so ago, we've pretty much decided to go all in on it.. despite my initial reservations mostly due to worrying that it's just the latest "new kid on the block"
The RTK part I bought into pretty quickly. Having seen a bunch of flavors of Redux code, I especially love the way RTK allows you to write reducers that mutate state directly.. and just really abstracts away a lot of the complexity, providing a means to writing idiomatic Redux code! On the flip side, I am a little worried about how much it hides what Redux really does, as someone who took a while to really understand it myself. It's started to get into Rails territory from a magic standpoint ;)
RTKQ was a bigger leap for me.. my initial impression was that the API seemed a little clunky.. especially the query "builders" part. While I like the way it allows you to inject different API endpoints where they're used, I do fear it will result in some very tight coupling between it and the requests to services. Having said that, the API has grown on me since I first saw it. So maybe it's just a matter of familiarity.
Anyways, there's certainly more feedback I have! And I'd also be the first to admit I'm not totally fluent in all these libraries and concepts.. so not even sure I'm qualified to speak to these things or if this is what you're looking for. But feel free to reach out to me at [email protected]. Would love some feedback in ensuring our team is really using these libraries effectively.
Thanks again for all your hard work!
