use-size 📐✨

Hello, Dimension Detective! 🕵️‍♂️

The use-size hook is a specialized hook, often simpler than use-rect, focused specifically on getting the width and height of a DOM element. It usually employs a ResizeObserver to efficiently update these dimensions whenever the element resizes.

It's like having a dedicated width and height sensor for your HTML elements! 📏↔️↕️

Why use-size?

• Performance: If you only need width and height, use-size can be more lightweight than a full use-rect which might track position too.
• Simplicity: A more focused API for a common use case.
• Responsive Components: Easily make components adapt to their own size rather than just the viewport.

Basic Usage:

import { useSize } from '@ryvora/react-use-size'; // Hook name might vary
import React, { useRef } from 'react';

function MyResponsiveBox() {
  const boxRef = useRef<HTMLDivElement>(null);
  const size = useSize(boxRef);

  return (
    <div>
      <div
        ref={boxRef}
        style={{
          width: '75%',
          minHeight: '100px',
          border: '2px solid green',
          padding: '10px',
          resize: 'horizontal', // Make it resizable for demo
          overflow: 'auto',
        }}
      >
        Try resizing me horizontally!
        {size && (
          <p>
            Current Width: {size.width}px, Current Height: {size.height}px
          </p>
        )}
        {size && size.width < 300 && <p style={{ color: 'red' }}>I'm getting pretty small!</p>}
      </div>
    </div>
  );
}

Know the dimensions, rule the layout! 👑🖼️
