Is this pattern compatible with Zustand middleware like persist or devtools?

Yes, the root store can wrap the combined slices in middleware. You can even use the `partialize` option in the persist middleware to selectively persist only specific slices.

When should I use the Zustand slice pattern instead of a single store?

You should switch to the slice pattern when your store exceeds 150 lines of code, contains more than 10 actions, or manages distinct feature domains that would benefit from separation of concerns.

How do slices interact with each other in this pattern?

Slices can access other slices' state and actions at runtime by using the `get()` function provided within the `StateCreator`. This prevents circular dependency issues at the module level.

Does this pattern impact application performance?

When combined with selective selectors and `useShallow`, the slice pattern actually helps performance by making it easier to manage granular re-renders in complex applications.

Developer Tools

Implements the modular slice pattern for organizing and scaling large Zustand state stores in React applications.

About

This skill provides a structured methodology for managing complex global state by decomposing monolithic Zustand stores into feature-specific slices. It guides developers through defining type-safe slice interfaces, composing them into a unified root store using the spread pattern, and managing cross-slice logic via runtime access. It is an essential tool for enterprise React projects where maintainability, separation of concerns, and developer collaboration are priorities.
