Overview
React Redux is the official binding between a Redux store and React UI. Provider exposes the store to a component tree, useSelector subscribes to selected state, and useDispatch sends actions. The older connect API remains available while hooks are the recommended approach for current code.

Key features
Expose one Redux store through Provider
Passing a store to Provider makes it available to descendant components through React Redux APIs, creating an explicit binding boundary between the UI tree and state container.
Sources: [1]
Subscribe with useSelector and dispatch actions with useDispatch
The hooks API lets function components select store state, re-render on relevant updates, and dispatch actions. It integrates directly with stores created using Redux Toolkit.
Keep legacy connect-based components working during migration
Version 9.3.0 adds a deprecation annotation to connect but does not change its behavior or remove it, allowing existing components to remain in place while newer code moves to hooks.
Sources: [3]
Best fit
Fits React applications that standardize access to shared Redux state
It is useful when global or shared state, normalized entities, or asynchronous workflows live in Redux and React components need a consistent subscription and update API.
Sources: [1]
Before adoption
Version 9.3.0 targets React 18 and 19
Package metadata requires React ^18.0 || ^19 and declares Redux ^5.0.0 as an optional peer dependency. Check compatibility before moving legacy React applications to the 9.x line.
Sources: [2]
Hooks are recommended over connect for new code
The 9.3.0 release marks connect as deprecated and encourages migration to useSelector and useDispatch. The annotation does not imply immediate removal, so migrations can be incremental.

Supplemental curator note
For new code, the Redux team recommends Redux Toolkit and hooks. Version 9.3.0 marks connect as deprecated without changing its runtime behavior or announcing removal.
Try it in 3 steps

Prepare a pinned React Redux environment
Create an isolated npm project with React Redux 9.3.0 and exact peer dependencies.
demo=$(mktemp -d "${TMPDIR:-/tmp}/react-redux.XXXXXX") && cd "$demo" && npm init -y >/dev/null && npm install --save-exact react-redux@9.3.0 redux@5.0.1 react@19.2.0 react-dom@19.2.0 - 2
Create a minimal Provider and useSelector component
Build a minimal component that subscribes to store state under Provider without starting a browser.
printf '%s\n' "import React from 'react'" "import { Provider, useSelector } from 'react-redux'" "import { createStore } from 'redux'" "import { renderToStaticMarkup } from 'react-dom/server'" "const store=createStore((state={count:1})=>state)" "function Counter(){const count=useSelector(s=>s.count);return React.createElement('span',null,'count='+count)}" "console.log(renderToStaticMarkup(React.createElement(Provider,{store},React.createElement(Counter))))" > demo.mjs - 3
Verify the server-rendered result
Require the subscribed Redux state to render through React Redux as the expected markup.
test "$(node demo.mjs)" = '<span>count=1</span>'
