So my final conclusion on this question is that I didn’t think it through properly. It seemed natural just to pass my data through the Link so I can access them in my Child component. As Colin Ramsay mentioned there is something called state in the Link but that’s not the way to do it. … Read more
Change <button type=”button” to <button type=”submit”. Remove the onClick. Instead do <form className=”commentForm” onSubmit={onFormSubmit}>. This should catch clicking the button and pressing the return key. const onFormSubmit = e => { e.preventDefault(); // send state to server with e.g. `window.fetch` } … <form onSubmit={onFormSubmit}> … <button type=”submit”>Submit</button> </form> Full example without any silly form libraries: … Read more

(Async reads can be handled differently.) In my experience, this … Read more

In order to prevent multiple simultaneous requests to … Read more

Overall it has same architecture, but Redux is able to cut some complexity corners by using functional composition where Flux uses callback registration. There is not a fundamental difference in Redux, but I find it makes certain abstractions easier, or at least possible to implement, … Read more
