MobX

What is it?

MobX is an open-source state management library commonly used with frontend frameworks such as React. It focuses on transparent reactivity by automatically tracking state changes and updating dependent components.

What does it do?

MobX manages application state by observing data changes and propagating updates efficiently. It reduces boilerplate code and simplifies complex state logic through a reactive programming model.

Where is it used?

MobX is widely used in web and mobile applications, dashboards, SaaS platforms, and complex user interfaces where state consistency and performance are critical.

When & why it emerged

MobX was introduced in the mid-2010s to provide a simpler alternative to more rigid state management solutions. It emerged to reduce complexity while maintaining predictable and reactive application behavior.

Why we use it at Internative

We use MobX in projects that require flexible state management with minimal overhead. Its reactive model allows us to build responsive interfaces while keeping application logic clean and maintainable.
