Issue with useEffect not triggering on Redux state change in Next.js app
Can someone help me understand I've looked through the documentation and I'm still confused about Quick question that's been bugging me - I'm working on a Next.js application where I'm trying to perform an effect whenever a specific piece of Redux state changes... I'm using React hooks with the Redux Toolkit. However, the `useEffect` hook is not triggering as expected when the Redux state updates. Here’s a simplified version of my Redux slice: ```javascript import { createSlice } from '@reduxjs/toolkit'; const initialState = { count: 0 }; const counterSlice = createSlice({ name: 'counter', initialState, reducers: { increment: (state) => { state.count += 1; }, }, }); export const { increment } = counterSlice.actions; export default counterSlice.reducer; ``` In my component, I have set up the `useEffect` like this: ```javascript import { useEffect } from 'react'; import { useSelector, useDispatch } from 'react-redux'; import { increment } from '../slices/counterSlice'; const CounterComponent = () => { const count = useSelector((state) => state.counter.count); const dispatch = useDispatch(); useEffect(() => { console.log('Count changed to:', count); // Some side effect logic here }, [count]); return ( <div> <p>Count: {count}</p> <button onClick={() => dispatch(increment())}>Increment</button> </div> ); }; export default CounterComponent; ``` Despite the `count` value updating correctly and rendering the new value, the `useEffect` does not seem to be triggering whenever the count changes. I’ve checked that the Redux store is correctly configured and that the component re-renders with the updated count. I also verified that React and Redux Toolkit are up to date (React 18.0.0 and Redux Toolkit 1.8.0). The console log inside the `useEffect` simply doesn't execute. I even tried lifting the state up and isolating this component to see if it was a scoping issue, but nothing worked. Is there a particular reason why `useEffect` might not trigger on state changes in this setup? Is there something I’m missing related to React’s lifecycle or Redux integration? Any insights would be greatly appreciated! What's the best practice here?
