I don't have a horse in the race, but this project seems derivative of react-powerplug. Should perhaps have some attribution? Only seems fair to me

Edit: i could of course be wrong. In which case please ignore :)

Hey @WickyNilliams, it's definitely partly inspired by react-powerplug, you're right!

I used react-powerplug a bit, and it (along with a bunch of other libraries—react-value, react-fns, react-router, etc.) contributed to the ideas for making this. I wanted something that handled really simple state management, but followed more conventional patterns from React/JavaScript that would be more of an unopinionated building block for other components.

And this library also tries to limit scope so that it can arrive at a "finished" state by only dealing with JavaScript native types as values, instead of handling everything.

That said, I'm not really sure it needs to list out all the other libraries that it drew from? People can ask if they want though!

That's fair. I feel bad for sort of calling you out. I don't think it was necessary, and regret it. Both this and powerplug look great, and it's nice to see people exploring these ideas.

Apologies again, and thanks for the courteous reply

@WickyNilliams no worries at all! It was a fair question.
