MobX vs reselect: What are the differences?

MobX: Simple, scalable state management. MobX is a battle tested library that makes state management simple and scalable by transparently applying functional reactive programming (TFRP). React and MobX together are a powerful combination. React renders the application state by providing mechanisms to translate it into a tree of renderable components. MobX provides the mechanism to store and update the application state that React then uses; reselect: Selector library for Redux. Simple “selector” library for Redux (and others) inspired by getters in NuclearJS, subscriptions in re-frame and this proposal from speedskater.

MobX and reselect can be primarily classified as "State Management Library" tools.

MobX and reselect are both open source tools. MobX with 19.8K GitHub stars and 1.21K forks on GitHub appears to be more popular than reselect with 15K GitHub stars and 526 GitHub forks.

Udemy, Swat.io, and ScreenAware are some of the popular companies that use MobX, whereas reselect is used by BlaBlaCar, LendingHome, and Captiv8.

      What are some alternatives to MobX and reselect?
      Relay Framework
      Never again communicate with your data store using an imperative API. Simply declare your data requirements using GraphQL and let Relay figure out how and when to fetch your data.
      Knockout
      It is a JavaScript library that helps you to create rich, responsive display and editor user interfaces with a clean underlying data model. Any time you have sections of UI that update dynamically (e.g., changing depending on the user’s actions or when an external data source changes), it can help you implement it more simply and maintainably.
      GraphQL Cache
      A custom middleware for graphql-ruby that handles key construction and cache reads/writes transparently.
      Flux
      Flux is the application architecture that Facebook uses for building client-side web applications. It complements React's composable view components by utilizing a unidirectional data flow. It's more of a pattern rather than a formal framework, and you can start using Flux immediately without a lot of new code.
      Apollo
      Build a universal GraphQL API on top of your existing REST APIs, so you can ship new application features fast without waiting on backend changes.
