Shane, Thanks for gathering the information and raising this. I also feel that our UIs reached a level of complexity what makes this to a reasonable next step. This complexity on the client side will grow in the future and I believe it is better to prepare instead of trying to make huge refactorings later. NgRx/Redux is quiet the industry standard architectural library in both React and Angular realm. Pretty well known in the community. I would be happy to move forward with NgRx.
