What the Flux? Let’s Redux. (or why Redux is awesome)

90% of these are actually "Why Flux + React Is Awesome" and have zero to do with Redux.

Redux seems perfectly nice but more verbose and boiler-plate ridden compared to say... Alt or Flummox and way less intuitive to newbies than Reflux (though Reflux has its own issues). I like Flummox but it has Osbourned itself by saying it's functionally abandoned.

Redux has constants for Actions which seems like the most verbose and ugly way to implement that (and it was the most criticized part of FB's original implementation as well). What this article doesn't do is tell me why I should use Redux instead of the others. Isomorphic is a great feature over Reflux but many other Flux libs have that.

So... can anyone else on here tell me why I should use Redux in production? Note - that's the important thing; in production. Who cares if it's a cute side-project thing? Real world applications are key. Or is it a case of "don't, but when it's stable switch"? If so, fine, but why would I switch?

In short: can anyone answer the question this article didn't? Why Redux?
