Installation

Getting Started​

First, make sure you have Node.js and npm installed on your computer. We recommend using the latest LTS version. In this guide, we'll use TypeScript code examples and React integration, so we need an environment for transpiling and building the project. Vite is perfect for this purpose:

npm create vite@latest my-app -- --template react-ts
cd my-app
npm install

MobX​

MobX is installed via npm just like any other package:

npm install mobx

React​

There are two packages for integrating MobX with React: mobx-react-lite supports only functional components, while mobx-react supports both functional and class components.

Due to the widespread adoption of React hooks, it makes sense to enforce the use of functional components. Therefore, installing the mobx-react-lite package will be sufficient:

npm install mobx-react-lite
