📦 @overlay-stack/tooltip

A smart, generic React Tooltip component designed to solve common issues with z-index, viewport clipping, and component customization.

No more tooltips cut off by the screen edge or stuck behind overlapping elements!

✨ Features

• Smart Placement: Automatically calculates the optimal side (top, bottom, left, right) to display the tooltip, ensuring it remains fully visible within the viewport bounds.

• Edge-Awareness: Intelligently checks for room around the target element to avoid clipping against the browser window and nearby elements, dynamically choosing the best spot.

• Generic Content: The tooltip body can be any valid React component or JSX, allowing for full customization of styles, content, and interactivity.

🚀 Installation

Install the package using npm or yarn:

npm install @overlay-stack/tooltip
# or
yarn add @overlay-stack/tooltip
