Hi @yonatanhanan, we’re actively working on removing Redux from JSON Forms with one of the next versions of JSON Forms. We already provide the `JsonForms` component which works completely without Redux, however for now it still must be there to successfully compile.

The Redux-less variant of JSON Forms works differently than the Redux one as there is no store where you can dispatch these actions, however almost all actions can be achieved in a different way. For example the `init` action is now implicitly executed with the props given to `JsonForms`, the `update` action can still be used within custom renderers, from outside the form you can simply provide a new `data` prop. `register` and `unregister` actions are handled via simple array props. You can find more information in our [FAQ](https://jsonforms.io/faq) and you can see both the Redux variant and the standalone variant in action in our [React seed](https://github.com/eclipsesource/jsonforms-react-seed).
