What are some approaches to decouple xstate's state from component state?
I got to thinking about this over the weekend. We're starting to use XState much more heavily at work, and being able to refactor machines aggressively without having to touch components sounds nice. Off the top of my head, the only one I can think of is: • Build the equivalent…

Example of two actors interacting
Does anyone have a sample repo to refer to for more complex ui interactions. For example multiple different types of filters trying to filter a table. Filter machine being one actor and table machine being another being spawned by a single parent.
