I don’t see where in the gist that you posted you are doing the redirect. I only see the AUTH_SIGNIN and AUTH_SIGNIN_SUCCESS actions, and they look pretty straightforward. But no, there is no hack to create an action in the middle of a dispatch, and this is by design. Actions are not supposed to be … Read more
Browser technology currently doesn’t support downloading a file directly from an Ajax request. The work around is to add a hidden form and submit it behind the scenes to get the browser to trigger the Save dialog. I’m running a standard Flux implementation so I’m not sure what the exact Redux (Reducer) code should be, … Read more

Redux author here! Redux is not that different from Flux. Overall it has same architecture, but Redux is able to cut some complexity corners by using functional composition where Flux uses callback registration. There is not a fundamental difference in Redux, but I find it makes certain abstractions easier, or at least possible to implement, … Read more
Update: see also how Twitter does it. This is not a full answer but should help you get started. Note that I’m not throwing away old reducers—I’m just adding new ones to the combination list. I see no reason to throw away the old reducers—even in the largest app you’re unlikely to have thousands of … Read more
If you would like to persist your redux state across a browser refresh, it’s best to do this using redux middleware. Check out the redux-persist and redux-storage middleware. They both try to accomplish the same task of storing your redux state so that it may be saved and loaded at will. — Edit It’s been … Read more
