Discussion: Potential hooks API design

See original GitHub issue

Let’s use this thread to discuss actual design considerations for an actual hooks API.

Prior references:

Along those lines, I’ve collated a spreadsheet listing ~30 different unofficial useRedux-type hooks libraries.

update

I’ve posted a summary of my current thoughts and a possible path forward.

the table didn’t look like it had anything to do with hooks.

I’m getting pretty mentally worn out after dealing with both the v7 thread and this thread.

I’m tired of issue comments and arguments. I want to see code.

build hooks, file PRs, let’s see how stuff actually works, then make decisions based on that.

@klandell : no timeline yet. To be entirely transparent:

v7 going final is an absolute pre-requisite for even starting to consider a public hooks API
Given that v7 is coming along relatively soon after v6, I am absolutely determined to make 100% sure that it’s rock-solid before I hit the button to publish v7-final
We’ve gotten along until now without hooks, and everyone’s using connect right now. We need to make sure that works right as our highest priority. Hooks can wait a bit longer.
All my free mental time and energy that I actually had to devote to OSS work has been focused on v7 the last couple months
At the same time, work has been extremely busy and stressful over these last couple months as well, so there’s been a lot of nights where I simply didn’t have the mental capacity to do anything “productive”
I basically have done v7 entirely by myself. I’ve gotten some bits of feedback from folks, but it’s effectively been a one-man show development-wise.
I’ve got a couple business travel trips coming up, plus at least one other potential trip this summer
There’s a ton of bikeshedding that’s going to be involved in figuring out what hooks APIs we actually want to ship, and then technical work to actually come up with them, and then more beta testing and stuff.
