Akita Demo

Akita State Management Library + Angular Demo

This is an Angular 9 application that demos how to use Akita for state management.

It also uses MirageJs as an in-browser API server.

The minimal (but important) architecture separates the Commands from the Queries. Changes to state (Commands) are performed through the Movie Serivce while the stream of state change events is accessed through the Movie Query .

Two different components show how state can be rendered as individual event streams or as one stream of complex events .
