## What it is
Stockroom is a small JavaScript library that runs a Unistore store and its actions inside a Web Worker, with optimized bidirectional state synchronization to the main thread. It keeps the same API as Unistore, gracefully degrading to inline (main-thread) operation when Workers are unsupported.

## Use cases
- offload state management and store actions to a web worker
- keep heavy reducer logic off the main thread in a Preact or React app
- share a single centralized store between worker and UI thread
- run centralized actions in a background thread with main-thread fallback
- subscribe to worker-managed state updates on the main thread

## When to choose
- you already use Unistore and want worker-based state management with minimal changes
- your store actions are computationally heavy and block the UI thread
- you want a tiny Redux-like state container that runs in a Web Worker

## When to avoid
- your app doesn't use Unistore or a compatible tiny store API
- you need a full-featured state management solution like Redux or Zustand with middleware ecosystem
- you need actively maintained software - the last release was in 2019 and there is no license file in the repo
