As stated in the documentation, all states in Zustand are immutable. Therefore, when updating arrays or nested objects, it is recommended to use immutable methods. Mutable methods like
Array.prototype.push()
may not be detected by Zustand.Although mutable methods may still work in practice, issues may arise when using performance optimization techniques such as
useCallback
andmemo
. This suggests that the component render actually caused by parent components, rather than Zustand.While I am not highly experienced in using Zustand, I personally prefer the immutable approach. If you prefer the mutable approach (as seen in Redux Toolkit), integrating Immer into Zustand may be a viable option.
