> It's like having a db, but on the front end

eh. Not really. Because there is no schema, what happens is the Redux store turns into a mess.

You got 10, 20, 30 developers working on an app, no one has a clue what any of the Redux variables mean or what use-case they are for (or what use-case they may change), and worse you have redundant data scattered everywhere and you're never sure which should be the authority. It's an ad hoc global variable soup that is updated with the moral equivalent of GOTOs (Redux actions) that litter the code in just about everywhere you could possibly think of.




Right. It's like a db iff you have and enforce a convention to keep your data organized.
