Full origin of redux →Frequently asked questions
How do you use "redux" in a sentence?
Put it after the noun it modifies, never before: "Watergate redux", not "redux Watergate". It carries a knowing tone, implying the thing has come round again with a twist.
How is redux pronounced?
REE-duks is the usual English pronunciation, with the stress on the first syllable. A second pronunciation, ri-DUKS, is also heard and is not wrong.
What is Redux in programming?
It is a JavaScript state-management library, most associated with React, that keeps an application's state in one immutable store and updates it through pure functions called reducers in response to dispatched actions. The name puns on "reducer", not on the Latin adjective's usual sense.
