+## How Reactivity Works: The Effects-Based System
+
+Neo.mjs State Providers implement a powerful effects-based reactivity system,
+which automatically tracks dependencies and re-evaluates computations when
+their underlying data changes. This system is built around two core concepts:
+
+### 1. The `Neo.core.Effect` Class
+
+At the heart of the reactivity is the `Neo.core.Effect` class. An `Effect`
+is a mechanism that encapsulates a function (its "effect function") and
+automatically re-runs this function whenever any of the reactive data
+properties it accesses change.
+
+*   **Implicit Dependency Tracking:** When your effect function (e.g., a formula
+    or a binding formatter) reads a reactive data property (e.g., `data.user.firstName`),
+    the `Effect` automatically "subscribes" to changes in that property.
+*   **Automatic Re-evaluation:** If `data.user.firstName` changes, the `Effect`
+    detects this and automatically re-executes its effect function, ensuring
+    that any dependent computations or UI updates are performed.
+
+### 2. The Hierarchical Data Proxy
+
+When you access data within a State Provider (e.g., in a `bind` configuration
+or a `formula`), you are interacting with a special `Proxy` object. This proxy
+is created by `Neo.state.createHierarchicalDataProxy` and provides a unified
+view of data across the entire State Provider hierarchy (current provider and
+all its parents).
+
+*   **Seamless Data Access:** You can access any data property, whether it lives
+    in the current State Provider or a parent, using simple dot notation (e.g.,
+    `data.myProperty` or `data.user.address.street`).
+*   **Enabling Dependency Tracking:** This proxy works in conjunction with
+    `Neo.core.Effect` to enable implicit dependency tracking. When an `Effect`
+    reads a property through this proxy, the proxy notifies the `Effect` about
+    the access, allowing the `Effect` to register that property as a dependency.
+
+### How Bindings and Formulas Utilize Effects
+
+*   **Bindings (`bind` config):** When you define a `bind` configuration for a
+    component (e.g., `bind: {text: data => data.hello}`), Neo.mjs creates an
+    `Effect`. The effect function is your formatter (`data => data.hello`).
+    Whenever `data.hello` changes, the `Effect` re-runs, re-evaluates the
+    formatter, and updates the component's `text` config.
+
+*   **Formulas (`formulas` config):** These are effect-based computed properties. Each formula function is wrapped in an `Effect`. When the
+    formula accesses data (e.g., `data.a + data.b`), the `Effect` tracks `data.a`
+    and `data.b` as dependencies. If either changes, the `Effect` re-runs the
+    formula, and its computed result is automatically updated in the State Provider's
+    data.
+
+This effects-based system significantly reduces boilerplate, making state
+management intuitive and efficient by handling dependency tracking and updates
+automatically.
