What is the best state manager for React?

[DavideSegullo]

There are a lot of technologies and solutions to implement a state manager in react, for example Redux.

But over time I realized that redux is overkill, and I would prefer to find an approach that allows you to define a state manager in a clean, simple and scalable way.

This is where my research begins:

People seem to use react query for server-state, while mobx for client-state: https://tanstack.com/query/v4/docs/guides/does-this-replace-client-state?from=reactQueryV3&original=https://react-query-v3.tanstack.com/guides/does-this-replace-client-state

There is a nice article related to react query and also to server state and client state: https://medium.com/duda/what-i-learned-from-react-query-and-why-i-will-not-use-it-in-my-next-project-a459f3e91887
