Disadvantages of React Thunk
- Complextiy: Introducing Redux Thunk may add complexity to the application, especially for simple projects, as it involves writing and managing asynchronous action creators.
- Learning Curve: Developers new to Redux might face a steeper learning curve when incorporating Redux Thunk due to its asynchronous nature and the need to understand how to structure actions.
- Potential Overhead: For small-scale projects or applications with minimal asynchronous requirements, using Redux Thunk might introduce unnecessary overhead, making it less suitable for lightweight applications.
What is Redux Thunk?
Redux Thunk is like a co-worker for Redux, giving it the power to handle asynchronous actions. It’s that extra tool that allows your Redux store to deal with things like fetching data from a server or performing tasks that take some time. With Redux Thunk, your app can smoothly manage both synchronous and asynchronous operations.
