A store enhancer is a higher-order function that composes a store creator
to return a new, enhanced store creator. This is similar to middleware in
that it allows you to alter the store interface in a composable way.
Store enhancers are much the same concept as higher-order components in
React, which are also occasionally called “component enhancers”.
Because a store is not an instance, but rather a plain-object collection of
functions, copies can be easily created and modified without mutating the
original store. There is an example in compose documentation
demonstrating that.
Most likely you'll never write a store enhancer, but you may use the one
provided by the developer tools. It is what makes time travel possible
without the app being aware it is happening. Amusingly, the Redux
middleware implementation is itself a store enhancer.
