summary
Describes concrete smells found in a 2‑year React + Redux codebase with 900 components and ~20 engineers, showing information leaks and low cohesion with code examples that were refactored. Names the exact fixes used — renaming props, grouping files by feature, turning concerns into render props and data‑connector components — and reports these changes improve navigation, reduce cross‑cutting edits, and make the app easier to maintain.
