Immer is a JavaScript library that allows you to work with immutable state in a more convenient and efficient way. It simplifies the process of updating nested data structures by enabling you to write code that looks like mutable operations, while actually producing immutable data. Immer's approach reduces the complexity of managing immutable data, making it easier to reason about and maintain your application's state.
Compared to manually handling immutability or using other libraries like Immutable.js, Immer provides a more intuitive and readable syntax. It offers a lightweight solution for immutability without sacrificing performance. Immer is actively maintained and widely used in the JavaScript community for state management.
