pass props is not main problem for using state management it is event handling to delete ,add, create,change etc.. to parent component having state . Great Content. Thank You
pass props is definitely a problem. It might seem a problem if you are only passing it one level down. But what if you have to pass a prop all the way down 50 levels to some grandchild in the dom tree? or what if you have to pass it a node that's 50 siblings away in the dom tree? State mgmt solves that problem as well by centralizing this. This is the reason we have mapStateToProps as 1st argument in connect method of react-redux.
@@atulchavhan8003 definitely not a replacement but sometimes redux may be a bit overkill. In the end of the video he mentions the main drawback to the usecontext, each element who has it will rerender upon state change, which might not be the best thing for a giant application
@@developedbyed please do you have another video explaining what he said. i am getting state from an add to cart button. i cant just copy state and paste in addToCartContext.js. I have to pass it from child to parent
If you are already familiar with React and came to this video for the Context API & Hooks start watching at 14:00. If you are still a beginner in React start at 0:00.
Thanks Ed, this was really helpful. Especially the way you stepped first through the rudimentary approach before introducing the more sophisticated way whilst adding just the right amount of complexity at each layer. The logical flow of the presentation was really great.
I just love, when someone first explain the problem and before teaching the solution, and he did the same.. I just love the way he clearly explains the things. best
I've been watching this (and other related videos) over and over for about half a week now. I've also been working on a beginner game in react and trying to use hooks the right way. Every time I try, my code looks better and I understand React that much better. Thank you for making your videos publicly available, Dev Ed! You're a real one 🏆🤓🙌🏽☺️🔥
Finally, I got to understand this, you're awesome, you explained each and everything clearly and their purposes, how everything's connected all together and all of this without overcomplicating things by using a complex example to demonstrate but you actually kept it all simple and clear! Thanks a lot!
Hi Ed, I have been watching your videos as and when needed, but this was (is) the gem of all. You made it super easy to understand the whole Context API in 30 minutes, that is _brilliant_ ! Thank you again!
great tutorial. doesn't rely on previous code and doesn't spend hours on css and other bs. gets pretty much straight to the point. every tutorial should be like this.
This video is over 2 years old, but....by far it is the best on this topic. I absolutely love that Ed describes the issue/problem in detail to understand what is being fixed. Thanks Ed.
Best tutorial on Context API period. All other youtubers are teaching like people already know what context api is. This is the only one which teaches from scratch. Loved it. That's why you are my favorite webdev youtuber.
I saw a bunch of videos trying to understand this concept. And your video is the only one that made it so simple to understand this concept. Breaking the video into problems and providing solutions to them makes the concept crystal clear. You are an amazing teacher. Thank You so much.
One of the best explanations of the Context API. Dev Ed is no doubt one of the best instructors out there when it comes to explaining things easily and efficiently. Thank you so much. You were really helpful.
Been working on getting used to using React hooks instead of the passing props down through class based components and this was for sure the most helpful tutorial I've checked out. Thank you!
Ed makes things so easy to understand. I spent hours reading or watching other material and they always complicated it somehow. Ed is right, this is a great precursor to learning Redux. Thank you Ed!!!
No simplest little project like this on the internet on context api. I am trying for first time and I got it!. Many thanks to you my best friend. Your tutorials are really effective.
I'm I the only one rewatching this in 2020? This video makes more sense after I struggled with passing props in components. Great content Ed. Thanks a lot.
Thanks for the video Ed! Was having a hard time understanding Context for a long time, read the React docs and information from more React experts but all seemed so complex but thanks for the way you explain the concepts so easy made it all click!!
Dev Ed, Thanks a lot for your tutorials. You just dont know how much I'm learning from you.. I hope youtube is paying you enough mate coz I'm sure that I speak on behalf of many when I say that you manage to walk us thru the tutorials step by step in an understandable manner!
You have no idea how grateful I am for your videos, man... When I searched for Context API and found this one, I was like "Thanks God I'm finally going to understand that!". I was not mistaken by the way. Yet another time, thanks for saving my life.
Thanks for the video. Your up there with the best for explaining content. I've watched other CZcamsrs explain this but it never quite clicked in my head until this video.
Thanks a lot, I really liked this tutorial. Appreciate that you also explained the downside of using the context api at the end of the video. Makes it easier to understand the difference between context api and redux.
Re render all props. I think that is the purpose of it. To distribute all the data to components. Like authentication, themes, current user... Awesome tutorials. Crystal clear. No indian accent. Big font code.
Thanks for this video Dev Ed. I always thought the context API as very clunky compared to Redux etc... This video made me realize how easy it really is.
After binge watching random redux tutorials and trying to understand its implementation, this is heaven sent. IMHO react context API is much easier to understand and implement for beginners like me, Thank you very much for your very concise and well-executed tutorial video.
Thank you! Thanks to this video I saw really useful features and approach of using Context which was not covered in the original documentation. You are rock!!!
A few days ago I was scared of the context API. After watching the video, the fear is over. Thanks man. I appreciate your teaching style... Now I'm one of the new subscriber on your channel.
hey ed, thanks for always making wonderful videos, it really helped me learning webdev! and your positive personality really makes learning more fun :)
I love the way you teach and explain everything. Like others have suggested, if you could do a Redux tutorial in your own special way that would AMAZING!
I am just a beginner in react and state management ,was facing a lot of problems in prop drilling ,thank you so much for teaching this technique, helped me a lot:)
Thanks a lot, Ed, for the energy and the enthusiasm that you put into this.... Easy to understand, good examples, speed, etc. Helping me a lot... If I ever make some bucks with React, I will distribute ;-)
The best way to understand something is read the official documentation and then go to find that something explained for Ed, Great explication, Thank you so much!
Amazing video man. Really good for me who needed a basic idea of how Context API worked. Love your enthusiasm too! Gonna watch your video about Redux next :D

Correct! Should've made that a bit more clear! My bad!

State mgmt solves that problem as well by centralizing this. This is the reason we have mapStateToProps as 1st argument in connect method of react-redux.
Is this a full time replacement for redux or lack some/many features?

This one is among the fewest videos on CZcams that actually explains why State management is important.
And apparently the explanation is wrong according to the pinned comment
@@TheSaintsVEVO the explanation isn't *wrong* , its just a matter of what problem you want to tackle.
Hey! Are you studying or working currently? Are you open to internship/job opportunities?
