Redux Persist

Redux Persist is a library for persisting and rehydrating a Redux store, typically in web and mobile applications. It allows developers to save the Redux state to storage (like localStorage in browsers or AsyncStorage in React Native) and restore it when the app reloads, ensuring data persistence across sessions. This helps maintain user state, such as authentication tokens, preferences, or cached data, even after page refreshes or app restarts.

Also known as: redux-persist, redux persist, ReduxPersist, redux state persistence, redux storage

Why learn Redux Persist?

Developers should use Redux Persist when building applications with Redux that require state persistence, such as maintaining user login sessions, preserving UI settings, or caching API responses to improve performance. It's particularly useful in scenarios where users expect their data to persist between app launches, like in e-commerce carts, note-taking apps, or progressive web apps (PWAs). Without it, the Redux state resets on reload, leading to poor user experience.
