Redux Core Concepts Analogy (Cake Shop)
📌 The three core concepts of Redux are explained using a real-world scenario of a cake shop.
👩‍🍳 The customer ordering a cake via a QR code represents the Action (describing what happened).
🏪 The shop's shelf holding the cakes and inventory count represents the Store (holding the application state).
👨‍💼 The shopkeeper processes the order, checks inventory, and updates stock, representing the Reducer (handling the action and updating the state).

Mapping Redux to the Scenario
📍 The Store safely holds all the application's state, analogous to the shop holding all the cakes.
📩 An Action describes an event that occurred, like a customer placing an order, which signals a required state change (e.g., cake count must decrease by one).
🔄 The Reducer connects the Store and Actions, functioning like the shopkeeper who receives the order (Action) and deducts a cake from the shelf (Store).

Key Points & Insights
➡️ Redux relies on three components: the Store (application state container), the Action (event descriptor), and the Reducer (state updater logic).
➡️ The Reducer receives an Action and determines how to update the state in the Store.
➡️ Understanding this scenario makes grasping the fundamental Redux pattern much easier before diving into the three fundamental principles in the next video.
