Show HN: Cqrs-react-router – A Redux alternative

Nice! Thanks for commenting. The reason that I tied the two together for react is that it saves quite a bit of boilerplate to let the router pass on the application service than having to manually add the service to each page individually.

However, the route and router are not necessary for the rest of the library to work and the rest of the library can be used as a plugin to use with a different router.

In terms of DDD principles - if you have decided you might need CQRS for your particular case, you might not want to spend a large amount of time setting up the routing/CQRS framework and you might want to spend all of your time on your actual business logic instead.

I am currently using this in a few of my projects and it's proving quite neat, although I may still need to add some details. I hope others can find it useful - if not, then at least this was a worthwhile experiment.

You are right that CQRS doesn't have to use Event Sourcing... but this library DOES use Event Sourcing, although it seems the events are called "Actions".
