+## Slicing the store into smaller stores
+
+Your store can become bigger and bigger and tougher to maintain as you add more features.
+
+You can divide your main store into smaller individual stores to achieve modularity. This is simple to accomplish in Zustand!
+
+The first individual store:
+
+```js
+export const createFishSlice = (set) => ({
+  fishes: 0,
+  addFish: () => set((state) => ({ fishes: state.fishes + 1 })),
+})
+```
+
+Another individual store:
+
+```js
+export const createBearSlice = (set) => ({
+  bears: 0,
+  addBear: () => set((state) => ({ bears: state.bears + 1 })),
+  eatFish: () => set((state) => ({ fishes: state.fishes - 1 })),
+})
+```
+
+You can now combine both the stores into **one bounded store**:
+
+```js
+import create from 'zustand'
+import { createBearSlice } from './bearSlice'
+import { createFishSlice } from './fishSlice'
+
+export const useBoundStore = create((...a) => ({
+  ...createBearSlice(...a),
+  ...createFishSlice(...a),
+}))
+```
+
+### Usage in a React component
+
+```jsx
+import { useBoundStore } from './stores/useBoundStore'
+
+function App() {
+  const bears = useBoundStore((state) => state.bears)
+  const fishes = useBoundStore((state) => state.fishes)
+  const addBear = useBoundStore((state) => state.addBear)
+  return (
+    <div>
+      <h2>Number of bears: {bears}</h2>
+      <h2>Number of fishes: {fishes}</h2>
+      <button onClick={() => addBear()}>Add a bear</button>
+    </div>
+  )
+}
+
+export default App
+```
+
+## Adding middlewares
+
+Adding middlewares to a combined store is the same as with other normal stores.
+
+Adding `persist` middleware to our `useBoundStore`:
+
+```js
+import create from 'zustand'
+import { createBearSlice } from './bearSlice'
+import { createFishSlice } from './fishSlice'
+import { persist } from 'zustand/middleware'
+
+export const useBoundStore = create(
+  persist(
+    (...a) => ({
+      ...createBearSlice(...a),
+      ...createFishSlice(...a),
+    }),
+    { name: 'bound-store' }
+  )
+)
+```

 If you have some middlewares then replace `StateCreator<MyState, [], [], MySlice>` with `StateCreator<MyState, Mutators, [], MySlice>`. For example, if you are using `devtools` then it will be `StateCreator<MyState, [["zustand/devtools", never]], [], MySlice>`. See the ["Middlewares and their mutators reference"](#middlewares-and-their-mutators-reference) section for a list of all mutators.
