Recoil is a state management library for React applications, developed by Facebook. It provides a simple and efficient way to manage global state in complex React applications, offering features like atoms, selectors, and asynchronous data fetching. Recoil leverages React's built-in features like hooks and context to provide a flexible and scalable state management solution.
Compared to other popular state management libraries like Redux and MobX, Recoil offers a more intuitive API and seamless integration with React components. It is actively maintained and recommended for new React projects that require efficient state management.
