Is redux healthy, maintained, and safe?
Probably not — redux has gone quiet for over two years and shows the hallmarks of an abandoned package.
The verdict
OSPulse scores redux at 40/100 (medium risk), computed deterministically from live npm release history, maintainer data, and the OSV vulnerability database. Probably not — redux has gone quiet for over two years and shows the hallmarks of an abandoned package.
The last sign of life was 23 December 2023, more than 2 years ago (948 days); by any practical measure the package looks abandoned. Historically it released far more frequently, so the current silence reads as a genuine collapse in velocity rather than a natural gap. 6 maintainers are listed on npm, so the project isn't hostage to any single contributor.
On the security side, OSV has no advisories on record for redux today. That's reassuring, but "no known advisory" is not the same as "no vulnerability" — it only means nothing has been disclosed and indexed yet.
redux is usable but carries real signals — pin versions, watch for new advisories, and keep a fallback in mind. This is a one-time snapshot of a single package — real projects depend on dozens or hundreds of packages, and any one of them can drift or be compromised between releases. Run your own package.json through the free health check, or have OSPulse monitor your whole dependency tree continuously.

Frequently asked
Is redux still maintained?
It doesn't appear to be — the last release was 23 December 2023, over two years ago, which usually indicates an abandoned package.
Does redux have known security vulnerabilities?
No advisories are currently recorded for redux in the OSV database. That means none have been publicly disclosed and indexed — it is not a guarantee of safety.
Is redux safe to use?
Probably not — redux has gone quiet for over two years and shows the hallmarks of an abandoned package. OSPulse rates it 40/100 (medium risk) based on release recency, cadence, maintainer bus factor and known vulnerabilities.
