# Zustand Patterns

Modern state management with Zustand 5.x - lightweight, TypeScript-first, no boilerplate.

## Overview

- Global state without Redux complexity
- Shared state across components without prop drilling
- Persisted state with localStorage/sessionStorage
- Computed/derived state with selectors
- State that needs middleware (logging, devtools, persistence)

## Upstream coverage (do not restate)

Zustand's own docs are the source for the mechanics. This skill carries only the OrchestKit delta
on top of them, in `references/ork-delta.md`, the `rules/` files, and the checklist.

| Topic | First-party source |
|-------|--------------------|
| Basic store, `create<State>()()`, actions, async actions | https://github.com/pmndrs/zustand/blob/main/docs/reference/apis/create.md |
| Slices pattern (splitting and combining stores) | https://github.com/pmndrs/zustand/blob/main/docs/learn/guides/slices-pattern.md |
| Typing slices and middleware mutator tuples | https://github.com/pmndrs/zustand/blob/main/docs/learn/guides/advanced-typescript.md |
| Immer middleware (draft mutations) | https://github.com/pmndrs/zustand/blob/main/docs/reference/middlewares/immer.md |
| persist: `partialize`, `version`, `migrate`, `onRehydrateStorage`, storage adapters | https://github.com/pmndrs/zustand/blob/main/docs/reference/middlewares/persist.md |
| devtools: action names, `enabled`, `serialize`, `trace` | https://github.com/pmndrs/zustand/blob/main/docs/reference/middlewares/devtools.md |
| `subscribeWithSelector` and non-React subscriptions | https://github.com/pmndrs/zustand/blob/main/docs/reference/middlewares/subscribe-with-selector.md |
| Selectors and `useShallow` re-render control | https://github.com/pmndrs/zustand/blob/main/docs/learn/guides/prevent-rerenders-with-use-shallow.md |
| v4 to v5 migration (`createWithEqualityFn`, React 18 floor) | https://github.com/pmndrs/zustand/blob/main/docs/reference/migrations/migrating-to-v5.md |
| SSR and hydration | https://github.com/pmndrs/zustand/blob/main/docs/learn/guides/ssr-and-hydration.md |
| Store testing and reset | https://github.com/pmndrs/zustand/blob/main/docs/learn/guides/testing.md |
| Server-state ownership (use TanStack Query, not Zustand) | https://tanstack.com/query/latest/docs/framework/react/guides/does-this-replace-client-state |

## Quick Reference

```typescript
// ✅ Create typed store with double-call pattern
const useStore = create<State>()((set, get) => ({ ... }));

// ✅ Use selectors for all state access
const count = useStore((s) => s.count);

// ✅ Use useShallow for multiple values (Zustand 5.x)
const { a, b } = useStore(useShallow((s) => ({ a: s.a, b: s.b })));

// ✅ Middleware order: immer → subscribeWithSelector → devtools → persist
create(persist(devtools(immer((set) => ({ ... })))))

// ❌ Never destructure entire store
const store = useStore(); // Re-renders on ANY change

// ❌ Never store server state (use TanStack Query instead)
const useStore = create((set) => ({ users: [], fetchUsers: async () => ... }));
```

## Key Decisions

| Decision | Option A | Option B | Recommendation |
|----------|----------|----------|----------------|
| State structure | Single store | Multiple stores | **Slices in single store** - easier cross-slice access |
| Nested updates | Spread operator | Immer middleware | **Immer** for deeply nested state (3+ levels) |
| Persistence | Manual localStorage | persist middleware | **persist middleware** with partialize |
| Multiple values | Multiple selectors | useShallow | **useShallow** for 2-5 related values |
| Server state | Zustand | TanStack Query | **TanStack Query** - Zustand for client-only state |
| DevTools | Always on | Conditional | **Conditional** - `enabled: process.env.NODE_ENV === 'development'` |

## Anti-Patterns & Integration

Forbidden patterns (store destructuring, derived state, server state, direct mutation) and React Query integration guidance.
