I appreciate Codecademy so much, but i just dont understand why we learned all the base Redux stuff if much of it is not even preferred to be used since we have Redux Toolkit… like why did i even take pages of all these notes then if it’s not even the preferred way of doing it? My first thought is ‘it helps knowing how things actually work at a base level’, to which my answer is you never taught me binary code in the course and i think im doing just fine… like what a waste of time and notes. Could have just combined all this into a single Redux Toolkit section.

I mean logically, what the heck is the difference between just using configureStore() and KNOWING that configureStore() replaces createStore() and combineReducers()… like either way im just going to use configureStore() so why waste my time taking all these notes on createStore() and combineReducers() in the first place?!

There’s been some other parts of the course that do stuff like this too.
