Recoil is a state management library for React applications developed by Facebook. It provides a simple and efficient way to manage global state in complex React applications, offering features like atoms, selectors, and asynchronous data fetching. Recoil leverages React's built-in features like hooks and context API to provide a flexible and scalable state management solution.
Compared to other popular state management libraries like Redux and MobX, Recoil offers a more intuitive and declarative approach to managing state, reducing boilerplate code and improving performance. It is actively maintained by Facebook and is recommended for new React projects seeking a modern and efficient state management solution.
