How do you handle side effects in Redux?

Short answer: ✅ Using middleware, such as: redux-thunk – lets you dispatch functions redux-saga – handles complex side effects via generators redux-observable – uses RxJS ✅ Example with thunk: const fetchData = () => async (dispatch) => { const response = await fetch('/data');

Example code

const data = await response.json(); dispatch({ type: 'SET_DATA', payload: data }); };

Real-world example (ShopNest)

ShopNest’s storefront is React: components for ProductCard, CartDrawer, and CheckoutForm, with hooks for local UI state.

Say this in the interview

1. Define — one clear sentence (the short answer above).
2. Example — relate it to a project like ShopNest or your real work.
3. Trade-off — when you would not use it.
