Flux Architecture

Putting stores into action

In this section, we're going to implement some stores in our skeleton architecture. They won't be complete stores capable of supporting end-to-end work-flows. However, we'll be able to see where the stores fit within the context of our application.

We'll start with the most basic of all store actions, which are populating them with some data; this is usually done by fetching it via some API. Then, we'll discuss changing the state of remote API data. Finally, we'll look at actions that change the state of a store locally, without the use of an API.

Fetching API data

Regardless of whether or not there's an API with application data ready to consume, we know that eventually this is how we'll populate our store data. So it ...
