Oh, please. The projects I've recently worked on used only Hooks instead of Redux. It was a nightmare to deal with. Files with endless amounts of `useSomething`, you'd need to dive through 4 levels of files to get to something useful.

Redux offers a ton of tooling and developer comfort if you get it right. And getting it right means having proper pull request reviews.

There's a lot of developer tooling (debugging tools), too, and a lot of middleware available to plug and play and GO.

If you're just using Hooks and the Reducer and Context APIs you're setting yourself up for a lot of headaches down the road.

Redux already makes use of those technologies, but wraps it in something easy to consume with a LARGE community for support.

Not using Redux is setting yourself up for failure, in my opinion. I've seen it happen too many times in the past year...
