Pros and cons between props, context, redux and mobx

Type Pros Cons
Props Simple pass data from parent to child components. It’s painful when you have many nested components that need to access the same data.
Context Allows you to pass data down through the component tree without having to manually pass props at every level. Can be difficult to debug when data is changing frequently, as it’s not always clear which component is updating the context.
Redux Global state management allows you to access data from any component in your application. Can be complex to set up and use. May be overkill for small or simple applications.
MobX Provides a simple and intuitive way to manage application state. Can be less powerful than Redux for complex applications. May be less well-suited for large teams, as it can be less strict in terms of enforcing data constraints.

Best scenario of using props, context, redux and mobx

Type Best Scenario
Props Simple application with only a few components
Context Larger application with many nested components that need to access the same data
Redux & MobX Complex application with lots of data that needs to be shared between components
