Immutable.js vs Recompose: What are the differences?

Developers describe Immutable.js as "Immutable persistent data collections for Javascript which increase efficiency and simplicity, by Facebook". Immutable provides Persistent Immutable List, Stack, Map, OrderedMap, Set, OrderedSet and Record. They are highly efficient on modern JavaScript VMs by using structural sharing via hash maps tries and vector tries as popularized by Clojure and Scala, minimizing the need to copy or cache data. On the other hand, Recompose is detailed as "A React utility belt". It is a React utility belt for function components and higher-order components. A higher-order component (HOC) refers to a function that accepts a single React component and returns a new React component. Think of it like lodash for React.

Immutable.js and Recompose can be primarily classified as "Javascript Utilities & Libraries" tools.

Immutable.js and Recompose are both open source tools. Immutable.js with 28K GitHub stars and 1.62K forks on GitHub appears to be more popular than Recompose with 14.1K GitHub stars and 1.25K GitHub forks.
