react-toastify VS react-tooltip

React-Toastify is one of the most popular toast UI libraries for React or Next.js. It's easy to configure and use, but integrating it with the App router makes the configuration part a bit tricky. There is an open issue about this topic, and while you can find some solutions there, they aren't summarized. So in this article, I'll provide a summarized version of the solution to integrate React-Toastify with Next.js App router.

Adding notifications to the application when a user adds/removes an item to the cart.You can use the React Toastify library to add notifications to the application.

React-toastify is a free, open-source, MIT-licensed toast package you can use to provide temporary, unobtrusive, and auto-expiring notifications in your React or refine application. You can use it with react or react-based frameworks like refine. React-toastify is a simple but powerful package.

When the Notify Me button is clicked, the onCLick event triggers the notify function which in turn renders the toast notification in the UI. Note: you must also render the component for the toast notification to work. There are configurations options that you can customize to fit into your project requirements; check out the full documentation here: Toastify Documentation

In their official example, handleError logs a message to console but it is better to return value so you can reuse in somewhere else easily later. Therefore, you can use this function instead with react-toastify or others to show notifications.

And that's it! I also added a few tooltips, to make it more user friendly using react-tooltip, but that is completely optional.

React-Tooltip

Use this library: https://www.npmjs.com/package/react-tooltip

. See ... SomeComponent > p > ... > SomeOtherComponent > ReactTooltip > div. I'm the author of SomeComponent and SomeOtherComponent. But the latter is using an external dependency (ReactTooltip from react-tooltip). It's probably not essential that this is an external dependency, but it lets me try the argument here that it is "some code that's out of my control".
