reducers
Things that lessen
Reducers are agents or substances that reduce something.
In chemistry, a reducer (or reducing agent) is a substance that donates electrons to another in a chemical reaction.
In programming, especially with state management libraries like Redux, a reducer is a function that takes the current state and an action, then returns a new state: The reducer handled the login action and updated the user object.
In plumbing, a reducer is a fitting that connects pipes of different diameters.
