Awesome data access for React

Start with the documentation

Some background

Based on the pattern described in this article:

• https://medium.com/@gcanti/slaying-a-ui-antipattern-with-flow-5eed0cfb627b

Through react hooks and the RemoteDataStore abstraction on top of RemoteData, this library also provides:

• lazy loading - only data which is necessary to render is fetched
• invalidation - you specify how long the data should live, and it'll be automatically updated
• sharing references to stores between components and deduplicating fetches
• retrying failed fetches
