A big part of what makes soapbox-fe function is the [Redux](https://redux.js.org/) store.
Redux is basically a database of everything your frontend needs to know about in the form of a giant JSON object.
To work with Redux, you will want to install the [Redux browser extension](https://extension.remotedev.io/).
This will allow you to see the full Redux store when working in development.
Due to the large size of the Redux store in soapbox-fe, it's worth documenting the purpose of each path.
If it's not documented, it's because I inherited it from Mastodon and I don't know what it does yet.
-`dropdown_menu`
-`timelines`
-`meta` - User-specific data that is _not_ a frontend setting (see: `settings`).
-`pleroma` - Pleroma specific metadata about the user pulled from `/api/v1/accounts/verify_credentials` (excluding the pleroma_settings_store)
-`alerts`
-`loadingBar` - Managed by [react-redux-loading-bar](https://github.com/mironov/react-redux-loading-bar)
-`modal`
-`user_lists`
-`domain_lists`
-`status_lists`
-`accounts` - Data for all accounts you've viewed since launching the page, so they don't have to be downloaded twice.
-`accounts_counters`
-`statuses` - Data for all statuses you've viewed since launching the page, so they don't have to be downloaded twice.
-`relationships`
-`settings` - Any frontend configuration values that should be persisted to the backend database. This includes user preferences as well as metadata such as emoji usage counters. It uses [`pleroma_settings_store`](https://docs-develop.pleroma.social/backend/API/differences_in_mastoapi_responses/#accounts) to do it if it's available. If there's some other endpoint that handles your value, it doesn't belong here.
