Following the official redux tutorials left me and my boss independently frustrated and turned off by the app.js description. We had both given up on redux until I followed this tutorial and it explained how simple and elegant the way components received properties from the redux state in th connect call.<p>Without this tutorial we wouldn&#x27;t be experiencing the ease and joy redux can bring to large react apps (We&#x27;re currently porting a large messy Angular app to react piece by piece by replacing just leafs of the app at a time)
