SyncState is a document-based state management library for JS apps that can power realtime multi-user, offline-first, undoable states across systems.
- Elegant on the surface, yet scales to large apps.
- Based on JSON patches.
- Plugins for History, Multi-user and more.
- Powered by Redux and Immer

Functional at the core. Mutate on the surface.
JSON patches as actions which can be transferred between the threads and sessions. Supports local mutation with Immer.js.
Like Redux, like MobX
The state is functional but the internal reactivity is based on the MobX approach.
Undo / Redo plugin
A plugin that stores the changes as JSON patches (instead of a series of app snapshots).
Easily build multiuser apps
The remote plugin helps achieve multiuser functionality. It comes with a bit of server piece that works for conflict resolution.
- Counter Example
- Counter With Redo/Undo
- Todo App
- Multi User Counter
- Multi User Todo
- Multi User Todo With Undo/Redo

You can install @syncstate/core
for the core functionality as a package from NPM.
# NPM
npm install @syncstate/core --save
# Yarn
yarn add @syncstate/core
The recommended way to use SyncState with React is to use @syncstate/react
. It has a hook for reactive updates and a Provider component to make the store available to the whole app.
# NPM
npm install @syncstate/react --save
# Yarn
yarn add @syncstate/react
Both packages are available as CJS as well as ESM packages. The source code is written in TypeScript and the published code is compiled to ES5 for compatibility across older browsers.
import { createDocStore } from '@syncstate/core';
import * as React from 'react';
import * as ReactDOM from 'react-dom';
import { Provider, useDoc } from '@syncstate/react';
// Create a store with an initial state
const store = createDocStore({ counter: 0 });
// Wrap your App with Provider and pass the store prop
ReactDOM.render(
<Provider store={store}>
<App />
</Provider>,
document.getElementById('root')
);
function App() {
/**
* useDoc hook with no arguments returns the root document and the function to modify the document.
* This also adds a listener at the document root and updates the component
* when the document changes.
*/
const [doc, setDoc] = useDoc();
const increment = () => {
setDoc((doc) => {
// This looks like a mutation but here we are updating the draft state
// using Immer.js which generates JSON patches for our internal reducers.
doc.counter ;
});
};
const decrement = () => {
setDoc((doc) => {
doc.counter--;
});
};
return (
<div>
<button onClick={decrement}>-</button>
{doc.count}
<button onClick={increment}> </button>
</div>
);
}
