Angular loves reactive and functional programming. The learning curve of RxJS, though, is steep so new developers tend to struggle to adopt it. Those who do, never look back. It is by far the most elegant and well-structured way to develop web applications.

Redux takes reactivity a step further while focusing on state management. It allows you to store and manage your application data while exposing it to the components as observable data streams while keeping data changes predictable and traceable. It also provides advanced debugging tools including time travel. NgRx-Effects, integrate redux with reactivity even further, to the extrene.

With the introduction of *Signals* in V.16 – Angular offered a simplified way to create reactive code and this feature quickly becomes the focus of future versions. NgRx 17 introduced an amazing new tool called *Signal Store* which looks more and more like the missing piece of the puzzle. The new *signal store* is fully signal based, lightweight, and highly extensible.

In this session we will do a quick recap of Redux using “ngrx/store” and “ngrx/store-devtools”. We will dive deep into effects and see the amazing power that they have when using RxJs “higher order operators”. We will also discover the new signal store, see how easy it is to use it either as a global store or at component level, and see how to extend it using *Custom Features*
