Technical Implementation Highlights

Redux Toolkit State Management

Implemented efficient state management with RTK Query for data fetching.

// Redux slice with RTK Query
import { createApi, fetchBaseQuery } from '@reduxjs/toolkit/query/react'

export const apiSlice = createApi({
  reducerPath: 'api',
  baseQuery: fetchBaseQuery({ baseUrl: '/api' }),
  tagTypes: ['User', 'Message'],
  endpoints: (builder) => ({
    getUsers: builder.query({
      query: () => 'users',
      providesTags: ['User'],
    }),
    sendMessage: builder.mutation({
      query: (message) => ({
        url: 'messages',
        method: 'POST',
        body: message,
      }),
      invalidatesTags: ['Message'],
    }),
  }),
})

WebSocket Integration

Real-time communication with Socket.io for live updates.

// WebSocket hook for real-time features
import { useEffect, useRef } from 'react'
import io from 'socket.io-client'

export function useWebSocket(url) {
  const socketRef = useRef(null)

  useEffect(() => {
    socketRef.current = io(url, {
      transports: ['websocket'],
      upgrade: false,
    })

    return () => {
      socketRef.current?.disconnect()
    }
  }, [url])

  return socketRef.current
}
