Nested menu (sub-menu)

I'm trying to implement Sub-menu (nested menu).

It's worth to mention that I'm using hydra component and don't have previous experience with redux (started learning it a few days ago because of this specific problem).

I've followed the example provided on material-ui for nested list https://material-ui.com/demos/lists/#nested-list. And tutorial from https://marmelab.com/react-admin/Theming.html#using-a-custom-menu for custom menu implementation.

So I have a few questions.

1) Can I have stateful component (MyMenu) just for handling toggling of menu items?

An example is not related to react-admin but its just example what I mean.

import React, { Component } from "react";
import { connect } from "react-redux";
import { addArticle } from "../actions/index";
const mapDispatchToProps = dispatch => {
  return {
    addArticle: article => dispatch(addArticle(article))
  };
};
class ConnectedForm extends Component {
  constructor() {
    super();
    this.state = {
      title: ""
    };
    this.handleChange = this.handleChange.bind(this);
    this.handleSubmit = this.handleSubmit.bind(this);
  }
  handleChange(event) {
    this.setState({ [event.target.id]: event.target.value });
  }
  handleSubmit(event) {
    event.preventDefault();
    const { title } = this.state;
    const id = uuidv1();
    this.props.addArticle({ title, id });
    this.setState({ title: "" });
  }
  render() {
    const { title } = this.state;
    return (
      <form onSubmit={this.handleSubmit}>
        <div className="form-group">
          <label htmlFor="title">Title</label>
          <input
            type="text"
            className="form-control"
            id="title"
            value={title}
            onChange={this.handleChange}
          />
        </div>
        <button type="submit" className="btn btn-success btn-lg">
          SAVE
        </button>
      </form>
    );
  }
}
const Form = connect(null, mapDispatchToProps)(ConnectedForm);
export default Form;

2) If not, can I achieve that by declaring a new state in store, for example, open: false, and then using the custom reducer to handle that.

3(bonus). If it's not a problem I would appreciate if someone can put me in the right direction which things to start learning first so I can less painfully manage to solve issues related to this amazing framework :)

The react-admin demo now shows a way to do so in examples/demo/src/layout/Menu.js:

enter image description here

import React, { Component } from 'react';
import PropTypes from 'prop-types';
import { connect } from 'react-redux';
import compose from 'recompose/compose';
import SettingsIcon from '@material-ui/icons/Settings';
import LabelIcon from '@material-ui/icons/Label';
import { withRouter } from 'react-router-dom';
import {
    translate,
    DashboardMenuItem,
    MenuItemLink,
    Responsive,
} from 'react-admin';

import visitors from '../visitors';
import orders from '../orders';
import invoices from '../invoices';
import products from '../products';
import categories from '../categories';
import reviews from '../reviews';
import SubMenu from './SubMenu';

class Menu extends Component {
    state = {
        menuCatalog: false,
        menuSales: false,
        menuCustomers: false,
    };

    static propTypes = {
        onMenuClick: PropTypes.func,
        logout: PropTypes.object,
    };

    handleToggle = menu => {
        this.setState(state => ({ [menu]: !state[menu] }));
    };

    render() {
        const { onMenuClick, open, logout, translate } = this.props;
        return (
            <div>
                {' '}
                <DashboardMenuItem onClick={onMenuClick} />
                <SubMenu
                    handleToggle={() => this.handleToggle('menuSales')}
                    isOpen={this.state.menuSales}
                    sidebarIsOpen={open}
                    name="pos.menu.sales"
                    icon={<orders.icon />}
                >
                    <MenuItemLink
