Managing Nested Array of Objects

[SemAiSoft]

I'm a newbie to the world of state mangmt libs, Please, how do I find, remove, and patch state of any the 'children' fully or partially, in a non-anti-pattern way.
For example,

{
     id: '0',
     children: [
       {
         id: '1',
         children: [
           { id: '3', children: [] },
           { 
               id: '4',
               children: [
                   {
                       id: '7',
                       children: [
                           {
                               id: '8'
                           }
                       ]
                   }
               ] 
           },
         ],
       },
       {
         id: '2',
         children: [
           { id: '5', children: [] },
           { id: '6', children: [] },
         ],
       },
     ],
   };

THANKS
