## What it is
Mirror is a React framework that wraps React, Redux, and React Router with a minimal API to eliminate boilerplate like manual action creators, reducers, and history setup. It lets developers define models with reducers and async effects in a single declaration and dispatch actions by simply calling functions.

## Use cases
- simplify redux state management in react apps
- reduce boilerplate in react/redux projects
- define actions and reducers in one place
- handle async actions without middleware
- set up react router without managing history manually

## When to choose
- starting a new react app that wants redux with minimal setup
- teams tired of redux boilerplate like switch-case reducers and dispatch calls
- projects wanting dva-style models with a smaller API

## When to avoid
- projects needing actively maintained dependencies - the repo has seen little activity since 2023
- apps using modern redux tooling like redux toolkit or zustand
- teams wanting fine-grained control over redux middleware and store configuration
