State Management

ZooperCart uses Zustand for efficient state management, particularly for handling the cart.

Example State in useCartStore.js:

const useCartStore = create((set) => ({
  carts: [],
  addToCart: (product) => set((state) => ({
    carts: [...state.carts, { ...product, quantity: 1 }],
  })),
  increaseQuantity: (id) => set((state) => ({
    carts: state.carts.map((item) =>
      item.id === id ? { ...item, quantity: item.quantity + 1 } : item
    ),
  })),
  decreaseQuantity: (id) => set((state) => ({
    carts: state.carts
      .map((item) =>
        item.id === id ? { ...item, quantity: item.quantity - 1 } : item
      )
      .filter((item) => item.quantity > 0),
  })),
  removeFromCart: (id) => set((state) => ({
    carts: state.carts.filter((item) => item.id !== id),
  })),
}));
