 Redux State Triggers
+
+## What is it?
+
+redux-trigger is a Redux middleware which allows delayed dispatching of an action
+based on a trigger state in the Redux store. Here's how it works:
+
+1. Dispatch a trigger (with action and state comparator function)
+2. The comparator function will be run every time the state is updated
+3. When the comparator function returns true, the trigger's action is dispatched
+
+## Why do it this way?
+
+There are many ways to handle asynchronous state changes within redux, just
+look at the related project list below. However, for many of these, promises are
+resolved at action dispatch time, or in the middlewares. This is okay for simple,
+discrete cases, but what about those cases where the same state can be reached
+in different ways?
+
+Promise flow: A -> B, B -> C, C -> D
+
+But what if B can be reached in another way? Then you have:
+
+Alternative promise flow: X -> B, B -> C, C -> D
+
+Now you have to duplicate the promise chain for each possibility.
+
+One of the primary principles of Redux is that the (state is the single source
+of truth.) [https://github.com/rackt/redux/blob/master/docs/introduction/ThreePrinciples.md#single-source-of-truth]
+Why then, shouldn't we trigger our asynchronous state based on that
+single source of truth for the application?
+
+redux-triggers allows you to set a trigger for a desired state, and then
+dispatch the action when the app's state it meets your desired criteria.
