1. Creating Your First Zustand Store

Example: Counter App

javascript

// src/store/useCounterStore.js
import create from 'zustand';

const useCounterStore = create((set) => ({


count: 0,
increment: () => set((state) => ({ count: state.count + 1 })),
decrement: () => set((state) => ({ count: state.count - 1 })),
}));

export default useCounterStore;

Using the Store in a Component

javascript

// src/components/Counter.js
import React from 'react';
import useCounterStore from '../store/useCounterStore';

const Counter = () => {


const { count, increment, decrement } = useCounterStore();

return (
<div>
<h1>Count: {count}</h1>
<button onClick={increment}>Increment</button>
<button onClick={decrement}>Decrement</button>
</div>
);
};

export default Counter;

Module 4: Advanced Store Management

1. Organizing State in Complex Applications

Example: Todo List Store

javascript

// src/store/useTodoStore.js
import create from 'zustand';

const useTodoStore = create((set) => ({


todos: [],
addTodo: (todo) => set((state) => ({ todos: [...state.todos, todo] })),
removeTodo: (id) => set((state) => ({ todos: state.todos.filter((todo) => todo.id !== id)
})),
}));

export default useTodoStore;

Using the Store in a Component

javascript

// src/components/TodoList.js
import React, { useState } from 'react';
import useTodoStore from '../store/useTodoStore';

const TodoList = () => {


const [input, setInput] = useState('');
const { todos, addTodo, removeTodo } = useTodoStore();

const handleAddTodo = () => {


if (input) {

Printed using ChatGPT to PDF, powered by PDFCrowd HTML to PDF API. 4/16
addTodo({ id: Date.now(), text: input });
setInput('');
}
};

return (
<div>
<input value={input} onChange={(e) => setInput(e.target.value)} />
<button onClick={handleAddTodo}>Add Todo</button>
<ul>
{todos.map((todo) => (
<li key={todo.id}>
{todo.text}
<button onClick={() => removeTodo(todo.id)}>Delete</button>
</li>
))}
</ul>
</div>
);
};

export default TodoList;

Module 5: Zustand in Real Applications

1. Integration with Asynchronous Operations

Example: Fetching Data

javascript

// src/store/useUserStore.js
import create from 'zustand';

const useUserStore = create((set) => ({


users: [],
fetchUsers: async () => {
const response = await fetch('https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/users');
const data = await response.json();
set({ users: data });
},
}));

export default useUserStore;

Using the Store in a Component

javascript

// src/components/UserList.js
import React, { useEffect } from 'react';
import useUserStore from '../store/useUserStore';

const UserList = () => {


const { users, fetchUsers } = useUserStore();

useEffect(() => {
fetchUsers();
}, [fetchUsers]);

return (
<div>
<h1>Users</h1>

<ul>
{users.map((user) => (
<li key={user.id}>{user.name}</li>
))}
</ul>
</div>
);
};

export default UserList;

Module 6: Persisting State

Example: Persisting Todos

javascript

// src/store/usePersistedTodoStore.js
import create from 'zustand';
import { persist } from 'zustand/middleware';

const usePersistedTodoStore = create(


persist(
(set) => ({
todos: [],
addTodo: (todo) => set((state) => ({ todos: [...state.todos, todo] })),
removeTodo: (id) => set((state) => ({ todos: state.todos.filter((todo) => todo.id !==
id) })),
}),
{ name: 'todo-storage' } // Key in localStorage
)
);

export default usePersistedTodoStore;

Module 8: Project: Building a Task Management App

In the final project, you can combine all these examples to build a more comprehensive application with
features like task management, state persistence, and async data fetching.
Let me know if you'd like help with a specific example or feature!

so how to user a value variable declared in create((set) => ({]) , in an other components , and tell me ,
what time create((set) => ({} , can have a second params comonly calling get ?

Using a Variable Declared in a Zustand Store in Another Component

To use a variable from a Zustand store in another component, you need to:

1. Import the store hook into the component.


2. Access the value using the hook and destructure it or call it directly.

Printed using ChatGPT to PDF, powered by PDFCrowd HTML to PDF API. 6/16
Example: Accessing and Using a Variable

javascript

// src/store/useCounterStore.js
import create from 'zustand';

const useCounterStore = create((set) => ({


count: 0, // State variable
increment: () => set((state) => ({ count: state.count + 1 })), // Action to update the sta
te
}));

export default useCounterStore;

Component 1: Display the Count

javascript

// src/components/DisplayCount.js
import React from 'react';
import useCounterStore from '../store/useCounterStore';

const DisplayCount = () => {


const count = useCounterStore((state) => state.count); // Access the state

return <h1>Current Count: {count}</h1>;


};

export default DisplayCount;

Component 2: Update the Count

javascript

// src/components/UpdateCount.js
import React from 'react';
import useCounterStore from '../store/useCounterStore';

const UpdateCount = () => {


const increment = useCounterStore((state) => state.increment); // Access the action

return <button onClick={increment}>Increment</button>;


};

export default UpdateCount;

Both components share and synchronize their state via the Zustand store.

When Can `create((set, get) => ({}))` Use `get` as the Second Parameter?

The `get` function is the second parameter in the function passed to `create`. It is used when you need
to read the current state from the store. This is especially useful for:

1. Derived State: Computing new state based on existing state values.


2. Chaining Updates: Accessing state while performing updates.

Printed using ChatGPT to PDF, powered by PDFCrowd HTML to PDF API. 7/16
Example: Using `get` for Derived State

javascript

// src/store/useCartStore.js
import create from 'zustand';

const useCartStore = create((set, get) => ({


cart: [], // Array of items in the cart
totalItems: 0, // Derived state

addItem: (item) => {


const updatedCart = [...get().cart, item];
set({ cart: updatedCart, totalItems: updatedCart.length }); // Use `get` to read the cur
rent state
},

removeItem: (id) => {


const updatedCart = get().cart.filter((item) => item.id !== id);
set({ cart: updatedCart, totalItems: updatedCart.length }); // Use `get` to update deriv
ed state
},
}));

export default useCartStore;

Using the Store in a Component

javascript

// src/components/Cart.js
import React from 'react';
import useCartStore from '../store/useCartStore';

const Cart = () => {


const { cart, totalItems, addItem, removeItem } = useCartStore();

return (
<div>
<h1>Total Items: {totalItems}</h1>
<button onClick={() => addItem({ id: 1, name: 'Item A' })}>Add Item</button>
<ul>
{cart.map((item) => (
<li key={item.id}>
{item.name} <button onClick={() => removeItem(item.id)}>Remove</button>
</li>
))}
</ul>
</div>
);
};

export default Cart;

Key Points About `get`

1. `get()` provides the current state of the store.


2. It is commonly used to:
Access the state for derived calculations.
Prevent overwriting unrelated state fields during updates.
3. Use `get` when a new state depends on the existing state values.

Let me know if you'd like more examples or clarification!

so how can i , use "cart" array value , in other zustand instance ?

To use the `cart` array (or any other state) from one Zustand store in another Zustand instance, you can
either:

1. Access the state directly from the first store within the second store.
2. Pass the state between stores using actions or hooks.

Let me show you how both methods work:

Method 1: Accessing State from One Store Inside Another Store

You can access the `cart` from one store inside another store by using `get` from the first store.

Example: Using `cart` in Another Zustand Store

javascript

// src/store/useCartStore.js
import create from 'zustand';

const useCartStore = create((set) => ({


cart: [],
addItem: (item) => set((state) => ({ cart: [...state.cart, item] })),
removeItem: (id) => set((state) => ({ cart: state.cart.filter((item) => item.id !== id)
})),
}));

export default useCartStore;

Now, suppose you have another store that wants to access the `cart` from the first store:

javascript

// src/store/useUserStore.js
import create from 'zustand';
import useCartStore from './useCartStore';

const useUserStore = create((set) => ({


user: { id: 1, name: 'John Doe' },
getUserCart: () => {
const cart = useCartStore.getState().cart; // Access cart from another store
return cart;
},
}));

export default useUserStore;

Using the Store in a Component


Printed using ChatGPT to PDF, powered by PDFCrowd HTML to PDF API. 9/16
javascript

// src/components/UserCart.js
import React from 'react';
import useUserStore from '../store/useUserStore';

const UserCart = () => {


const userCart = useUserStore((state) => state.getUserCart());

return (
<div>
<h1>User Cart</h1>
<ul>
{userCart.map((item) => (
<li key={item.id}>{item.name}</li>
))}
</ul>
</div>
);
};

export default UserCart;

In this example:

The `useUserStore` is accessing the `cart` state from the `useCartStore` using the `getState()`
method.
You can then use the `userCart` in any component.

Method 2: Passing State Between Stores

If you need to share state or actions between different stores, you can also pass the `cart` from one
store to another as part of the store initialization.

Example: Passing `cart` from `useCartStore` to `useUserStore`

javascript

// src/store/useCartStore.js
import create from 'zustand';

const useCartStore = create((set) => ({


cart: [],
addItem: (item) => set((state) => ({ cart: [...state.cart, item] })),
removeItem: (id) => set((state) => ({ cart: state.cart.filter((item) => item.id !== id)
})),
}));

export default useCartStore;

javascript

// src/store/useUserStore.js
import create from 'zustand';
import useCartStore from './useCartStore';

const useUserStore = create((set) => ({


user: { id: 1, name: 'John Doe' },

Printed using ChatGPT to PDF, powered by PDFCrowd HTML to PDF API. 10/16
cart: useCartStore.getState().cart, // Accessing cart from useCartStore
}));

export default useUserStore;

In this case:

You directly assign the `cart` from `useCartStore` to `useUserStore` when initializing the store.
This way, any component accessing `useUserStore` will have access to the same `cart`.

Method 3: Using the Zustand Store Hook Directly in the Component

If you want to use the cart state from one store in another component without accessing it through
another store, you can simply call both stores in the same component.

Example: Accessing `cart` from `useCartStore` in Another Component

javascript

// src/components/CartAndUser.js
import React from 'react';
import useCartStore from '../store/useCartStore';
import useUserStore from '../store/useUserStore';

const CartAndUser = () => {


const cart = useCartStore((state) => state.cart); // Accessing cart from useCartStore
const user = useUserStore((state) => state.user); // Accessing user from useUserStore

return (
<div>
<h1>{user.name}'s Cart</h1>
<ul>
{cart.map((item) => (
<li key={item.id}>{item.name}</li>
))}
</ul>
</div>
);
};

export default CartAndUser;

Here, both `useCartStore` and `useUserStore` are used within the same component, and each accesses
the respective state.

Conclusion

1. Method 1 (Accessing from one store to another): Use `getState()` to access one store's state
inside another store.
2. Method 2 (Passing state directly): You can initialize a store by passing the state from another store,
but this makes it tightly coupled.
3. Method 3 (Using multiple stores in a component): Simply use the `useStore` hooks for both stores
in a single component.

Let me know if you'd like further clarification or a more advanced example!

so what is the important keys i must know to use well zustand after "getState" ?

To use Zustand effectively in React, there are several important concepts and patterns beyond just
`getState`. Here are the key aspects to understand:

1. `set` and `get`

`set`: This is used to update the store state. Whenever you call `set`, it triggers a re-render in
components that subscribe to the changed state.

javascript

set({ count: state.count + 1 }) // Updates the state

`get`: Provides access to the current state of the store. It’s mainly used for reading the current
state when updating or deriving new state.

javascript

const cart = get().cart; // Access the current state

These two functions are crucial when working with Zustand to update and read the state.

2. `subscribe` (Custom Subscription)

Zustand allows you to subscribe to specific state changes. This is useful for accessing and
responding to state updates in a way that avoids unnecessary re-renders of components.

javascript

const unsubscribe = useStore.subscribe(


(state) => state.cart,
(newCart) => {
console.log('Cart updated:', newCart);
}
);

// Unsubscribe when no longer needed


unsubscribe();

This method lets you listen for changes to the state, which can be useful in situations like global event
handling or logging.

3. Selectors (Optimizing Component Re-Renders)


Printed using ChatGPT to PDF, powered by PDFCrowd HTML to PDF API. 12/16
Zustand supports selectors, allowing you to subscribe to specific pieces of state. This is useful for
optimizing performance by reducing unnecessary re-renders of components.
Instead of subscribing to the whole state (`useStore(state => state)`), you can select only the
parts you need:

javascript

const count = useStore(state => state.count); // Only subscribe to count

This ensures that the component only re-renders when the `count` changes, rather than any other
part of the store.

4. Middleware (Enhancing Zustand’s Functionality)

Middleware in Zustand can be used to add extra functionality to the store without changing the
core logic. The most common middleware is for logging and state persistence.

Logging Middleware

javascript

import create from 'zustand';


import { devtools } from 'zustand/middleware';

const useStore = create(devtools((set) => ({


count: 0,
increment: () => set((state) => ({ count: state.count + 1 })),
})));

This will allow you to inspect your store in the Redux DevTools.

Persist Middleware (State Persistence)

javascript

import create from 'zustand';


import { persist } from 'zustand/middleware';

const useStore = create(


persist(
(set) => ({
cart: [],
addItem: (item) => set((state) => ({ cart: [...state.cart, item] })),
}),
{ name: 'cart-storage' } // The name used in localStorage/sessionStorage
)
);

This middleware enables the store to persist data across browser refreshes using `localStorage`.

5. Deriving State (Calculating State Dynamically)


Printed using ChatGPT to PDF, powered by PDFCrowd HTML to PDF API. 13/16
Zustand allows you to derive state based on other values in the store, similar to computed
properties in Vue or memoization in React.

Example: If you want to calculate the `totalPrice` based on the `cart` contents:

javascript

const useStore = create((set) => ({


cart: [{ price: 10 }, { price: 20 }],
get totalPrice() {
return this.cart.reduce((total, item) => total + item.price, 0);
},
}));

The `totalPrice` value is derived from the `cart` but is not stored explicitly. It will always return the
current value based on the `cart` state.

6. Combining Stores

In large applications, it might be helpful to split state management into multiple stores. Zustand
allows you to combine multiple stores, either by using `create` for each store and combining them
in components or by organizing the state into modules.

javascript

const useStoreA = create((set) => ({


stateA: 0,
updateA: () => set((state) => ({ stateA: state.stateA + 1 })),
}));

const useStoreB = create((set) => ({


stateB: 0,
updateB: () => set((state) => ({ stateB: state.stateB + 1 })),
}));

// Use both stores in a component


const Component = () => {
const { stateA, updateA } = useStoreA();
const { stateB, updateB } = useStoreB();

return (
<div>
<h1>{stateA}</h1>
<button onClick={updateA}>Increment A</button>
<h1>{stateB}</h1>
<button onClick={updateB}>Increment B</button>
</div>
);
};

This pattern keeps your stores modular and manageable.

7. Zustand with React Context (Advanced Usage)

Zustand is unopinionated about how you manage your app, so it can work well with other tools,
including React Context.

Printed using ChatGPT to PDF, powered by PDFCrowd HTML to PDF API. 14/16
For example, you can use Zustand inside Context providers to make sure the store is available across
different parts of your app.

javascript

import React, { createContext, useContext } from 'react';


import create from 'zustand';

const useStore = create((set) => ({


count: 0,
increment: () => set((state) => ({ count: state.count + 1 })),
}));

const StoreContext = createContext(null);

export const StoreProvider = ({ children }) => {


return <StoreContext.Provider value={useStore}>{children}</StoreContext.Provider>;
};

export const useStoreContext = () => useContext(StoreContext);

Then, you can use `useStoreContext()` anywhere in your app.

8. Using Zustand with Async Functions

Zustand works well with async operations like fetching data, and you can directly handle async
logic in your actions.

javascript

const useStore = create((set) => ({


users: [],
fetchUsers: async () => {
const response = await fetch('https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/users');
const users = await response.json();
set({ users });
},
}));

You can call `fetchUsers` like a normal action, and the state will update once the data is fetched.

9. Performance Optimizations

Zustand is already lightweight, but there are a few tricks for optimizing performance:
Use selectors to only subscribe to the necessary parts of the state.
Use shallow comparisons with `zustand/shallow` to prevent unnecessary re-renders.

javascript

import shallow from 'zustand/shallow';

const useStore = create((set) => ({


count: 0,
name: 'John',
increment: () => set((state) => ({ count: state.count + 1 })),
}));

Printed using ChatGPT to PDF, powered by PDFCrowd HTML to PDF API. 15/16
// Subscribe to `count` and `name` using shallow comparison
const Component = () => {
const { count, name } = useStore(
(state) => ({ count: state.count, name: state.name }),
shallow
);

return <div>{count} - {name}</div>;


};

This ensures the component only re-renders when the values change, rather than re-rendering
whenever any part of the store changes.

Summary of Key Concepts

`set`and `get`: To update and read state.


Selectors: For optimizing component re-renders by subscribing to specific state.
Middleware: To add functionalities like logging or state persistence.
Derived State: Calculating state dynamically based on other values.
Combining Stores: Splitting the state into different stores and combining them.
Async Operations: Handling asynchronous actions directly in the store.
Performance Optimizations: Using selectors and shallow comparisons to avoid unnecessary re-
renders.

These concepts should help you to use Zustand effectively in your projects! Let me know if you'd like
more examples or explanations on any of these.
