Word Up uses React to render views, Redux to manage application state, Firebase for data persistence, authentication and hosting.
User interaction lifecycle:
- User interactions are first captured by handlers in React components.
- The component dispatches one or more Redux actions.
- Dispatched actions are consumed by the reducers, which update the store.
- Asynchronus proccesing such as requests to the database are handled by logics
- When the action lifecycle is complete, the components receive updated data via selectors and render accordingly
