REDUX

With Redux, we get a global store. This store lives at the highest level of your app and passes data down to all children. You connect to the global store with the connect wrapper and a mapStateToProps function.

You use this.props.dispatch(actionName) to trigger an action function that you have defined in you redux setup to update something globally

• When props are updated via dispatching an action in Redux store, it also triggers a re-render - just like when we update some local state data/variable
