Is redux-form still maintained?

What should I use instead of redux-form?

redux-form's own maintainers named react-final-form as the successor. react-final-form is not a drop-in replacement, so expect to change call sites.

How to migrate from redux-form to react-final-form

Replace the reduxForm() higher-order component with the <Form> component from react-final-form; <Field name component> carries over largely unchanged.

Why redux-form is on this list

The redux-form README says the author took what he learned maintaining it and built React Final Form, which he recommends for new projects, alongside the community view that form state generally does not belong in Redux. redux-form is not formally deprecated and still installs, but its last release was 8.3.10 in March 2023 and the repository has been quiet since. The Field component APIs were kept deliberately similar to ease the move, though many new projects now reach for react-hook-form instead.

The succession is well supported, but it is not the only defensible choice.

redux-form alternatives

Beyond the primary recommendation, these are credible for redux-form's use case:

Check your own project for redux-form

npx dead-deps --all --min-state unmaintained

Run that in the directory holding your lockfile. If redux-form is anywhere in your tree — a direct dependency or buried under something else — it appears in the report with this verdict, this successor and the same evidence links, alongside anything else that has stopped moving. Nothing is uploaded; the scan reads your lockfile locally and queries public registry metadata.

Exit code 1 means something was flagged, which makes npx dead-deps --min-state deprecated usable as a CI gate. See how verdicts are produced.
