React State Management Expert Interviews
Instructor
Joel Hooks
Managing state in a UI is challenging. It's genuinely difficult and the solutions require a depth of knowledge and experience to understand. Everything is a balance of tradeoffs in complexity, performance, and user experience.
This is a series of interviews with experts, open-source maintainers, and UI developers that have combined decades of experience building stateful UI applications for millions of users.
Part interview, part screen share, these videos should benefit you if you're building web applications.
They focus on React, but the underlying principles are valid for UI work in general (and beyond)!

It's a useful research compilation of the current status of the state management for frontend applications today.
