Try MobX. I think it's the holy grail of state management.

You have your app state in an object/class, and components automatically rerender when the part of the store changes that they access during render.

    class Store {
      counter = 0
      constructor() { makeAutoObservable(this) }
      increment() { this.counter++ }
    }

    const Component = observer(() {
     const store = useStore()
     const click = () => store.increment())
     return <button onClick={click}>{store.counter}</button>
    })
It has a very light set of idiosyncrasies for what it gives you unlike, say, redux.

That looks pretty good! I actually implemented my own state management that works like that five years ago because I didn't like the options at the time.
