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.
