Mutative is a TypeScript JavaScript library for efficient immutable state updates using a mutable draft API, producing new immutable structures. It is significantly faster than both handcrafted spread-based reducers and Immer, with support for JSON Patch, custom shallow copying, and optional freezing.

Use cases

  • update deeply nested redux state without spread operators
  • replace immer for faster immutable updates in react apps
  • write reducers with mutable-style draft code
  • generate patches from state changes
  • manage large immutable data structures efficiently
  • avoid accidental state mutations in reducers

When to choose

  • you need immutable updates faster than immer or handcrafted reducers
  • you want concise draft-based state update syntax in react/redux
  • you need patch support or custom shallow copy control

When to avoid

  • your state updates are trivial and spread operators suffice
  • you depend on immer-specific plugins or auto-freeze ecosystem tooling
