Connecting Components to the Store
Explore connecting React components to a Redux store by adding a store provider and using hooks like useSelector and useDispatch. Understand how to manage state globally, replacing local state with Redux-managed state for cleaner and more scalable applications.

We will start by adding what is called a store provider to the root of our component tree, which allows components lower in the tree to consume the store. We will then connect the home, question, and search pages to the Redux store using hooks from React Redux.
Adding a store provider
Let’s provide the store to the root of our component tree. To do that, perform the following steps:
In
App.tsx, import theProvidercomponent from React Redux and theconfigureStorefunction we created in the previous section. Add theseimportstatements just after the Reactimportstatement:
This is the first time we have referenced anything from React-Redux. Remember that this library helps React components interact with a Redux store.
Just before the
