 If you have an object in your store, even atomic updates will be wasteful. Let's say you have an object with several fields, but you are only interested in the `title` property. If you use `useValue`, it will do unnecessary work. To help with that, there is a `useValueSelector` state method, which accepts a selector function as the first parameter. Here is an example:

 In order to avoid unnecessary re-renders when you to change properties on a wrapper element/component, there is a special state method `useAttribute`. It allows to recalculate value for an attribute every time the state changes, but instead of re-rendering, it calls the `htmlNode.setAttribute` method. Here is an example:

+You can see that we dynamically change the width of the button with every press. This will be the only change, the rest of the application will not be re-rendered or any code will not be executed. You still need to be mindful what are you changing, as with some CSS changes you can force reflows/repaints and that can still cause some performance issues.

 Since `createState` is the only way to add dynamic behaviour to the application, sooner or later you'll need to build UI which depends on several states. To do so, you can use `combineState` function which accepts any amount of state objects, and returns an array with all combined values in it.
