I am implementing routing in react-application. I am confused between the advantage of react-router 4.0 over react-router-redux. I am also confused by react-router-dom.
What are the advantages and disadvantages of react-router-redux, react-router 4.0 and react-router-dom over each other?

They are technically three different packages: React Router, React Router DOM, and React Router Native. The primary difference between them lies in their usage. React Router DOM is for web applications and React Router Native is for mobile applications made with React Native.
Redux and React Router are two of the most used React libraries. Redux is used for app state management, while React Router is used for routing. In a majority of apps, it's necessary to communicate between the app state and the router. Usually, this is in response to an initial user action.
React Router is the most popular library for implementing routing for React apps. It was first released in May 2014 and it grew through trial and error as React's API changed from version to version.
react-router-dom re-exports all of react-router's exports, so you only need to import from react-router-dom in your project.
react-router v4 is base, building block. Provides API for creating routing solution.
react-router-dom is wrapper around react-router. It is supposed to be run in browser.
react-router-redux offers so called "controlled router", bound to redux store. State changes (navigation) could be controlled by dispatching redux actions as well as by clicking on links.
Your best bet is to start with react-router-dom (which pulls in react-router for you by default).
