SurveyJS
Open-Source JSON Form Builder to Create Dynamic Forms Right in Your App. With SurveyJS form UI libraries, you can build and style forms in a fully-integrated drag & drop form builder, render them in your JS app, and store form submission data in any backend, inc. PHP, ASP.NET Core, and Node.js.
One use case for the useWindowSize hook, which belongs to react-use, is for responsive design. The useWindowSize hook keeps track of the size of the browser window which makes it possible to apply different styles (layouts, displays, etc.) to user interfaces at different sizes. It returns an object containing the current width and height of the window.
This implementation of the useCopyToClipboard hook comes from the usehooks-ts library. It provides an easy way to copy text to the clipboard. Other React hooks libraries also have this hook which they implement differently: some rely on JavaScript libraries like copy-to-clipboard that run on document.execCommand() while others like this one depend on the clipboard API.
createGlobalSize also belongs to react-use and it provides a way for you to create a global state that can be shared across multiple components without having to go for state management libraries like redux.
As I was searching through the codebase and writing the components for my current work ticket, I came across some useful custom hooks from a number of third-party libraries like react-use, usehooks-ts, Mantine. But there are for sure other similar libraries out there such as use-http, react-hanger and many more.
Have you ever thought about designing or making your application behave differently based on the user's operating system (OS) such as implementing adaptive design or providing different download links for different platforms? Well, this hook from the Mantine library provides you with the OS name, returning it as a string.
