React Redux
Official React bindings for Redux. Performant and flexible.
Installation
Create a React Redux App
The recommended way to start new apps with React and Redux is by using our official Redux+TS template for Vite, or by creating a new Next.js project using Next's with-redux template.
Both of these already have Redux Toolkit and React-Redux configured appropriately for that build tool, and come with a small example app that demonstrates how to use several of Redux Toolkit's features.
# Vite with our Redux+TS template
# (using the `degit` tool to clone and extract the template)
npx degit reduxjs/redux-templates/packages/vite-template-redux my-app
# Next.js using the `with-redux` template
npx create-next-app --example with-redux my-app
An Existing React App
React Redux 9.0 requires React 18 or later
To use React Redux with your React app, install it as a dependency:
# If you use npm:
npm install react-redux
# Or if you use Yarn:
yarn add react-redux
You'll also need to install Redux and set up a Redux store in your app.
This assumes that you’re using npm package manager with a module bundler like Webpack or Browserify to consume CommonJS modules.
If you don’t yet use npm or a modern module bundler, and would rather prefer a single-file UMD build that makes ReactRedux available as a global object, you can grab a pre-built version from cdnjs. We don’t recommend this approach for any serious application, as most of the libraries complementary to Redux are only available on npm.

How Does It Work?
The post The History and Implementation of React-Redux explains what it does, how it works, and how the API and implementation have evolved over time.
There's also a Deep Dive into React-Redux talk that covers some of the same material at a higher level.

Packages this one expects to find in the same project. Each is also a Sourcemap Explorer detection target.
How Sourcemap Explorer detects react-redux
We catch react-redux from two complementary signals: bundled source paths and the embedded package.json. Modern bundlers (webpack, Vite, esbuild, Rollup, Turbopack) preserve the original node_modules/react-redux/ paths inside the JavaScript sourcemap's sources[] array — that's the canonical signal. When the matching package.json is also captured in sourcesContent[], we read the exact version field — patch number included. No regex guessing, no version inference.
- 1
Confirm the site exposes sourcemaps
In DevTools Network, check the response headers of any application script for `SourceMap` or `X-SourceMap`. Failing that, fetch the script's last 4 KB and look for a `//# sourceMappingURL=` comment.
- 2
Find the package in the bundle
Open DevTools → Network → reload. Click any application script and look at its sourcemap. Inside, search `sources[]` for entries matching `node_modules/react-redux/` — every match confirms the package is bundled. The matching `sourcesContent[i]` for `node_modules/react-redux/package.json` gives you the exact installed version.
- 3
Read the version directly from package.json
Run `jq -r '. as $m | $m.sources | to_entries[] | select(.value | endswith("node_modules/react-redux/package.json")) | $m.sourcesContent[.key] | fromjson | .version' bundle.js.map`. Sourcemap Explorer automates the same query in the popup.

FAQ
What is react-redux used for?

How can I tell if a website is using react-redux?
Open the page in Chrome with the Sourcemap Explorer extension installed and read the Stack tab. We catch `react-redux` from two complementary signals: `node_modules/react-redux/` paths inside the JavaScript sourcemap, and the embedded `package.json` we read for exact-version detection. Without the extension you can do the same lookup manually in DevTools — the steps are listed in the "How Sourcemap Explorer detects" section above.
What is the latest version of react-redux?
9.2.0, as published on the npm registry. The "Recent versions" table on this page lists the most recent 8 releases with their release dates. Sourcemap Explorer reports the version actually bundled into a site, which can lag the latest release by months on real-world deployments.
Where can I read more?

Detected by Sourcemap Explorer
When a bundle ships sourcemaps, we read the embedded package.json for react-redux and report the precise version. Without sourcemaps, an import / require in the page's scripts is enough to flag it.
