## What it is
A small JavaScript utility that copies non-React-specific static properties from a child component to a parent (wrapper) component, while preventing React's own static keywords from being overridden. It is commonly used when building higher-order components in React.

## Use cases
- copy static methods from a wrapped component to an HOC in React
- preserve component statics when wrapping components with higher-order components
- avoid overriding React static keywords like propTypes or contextTypes when hoisting
- exclude specific statics from being copied between components
- support ForwardRef-compatible static hoisting in React 16+

## When to choose
- you are writing React higher-order components and need to forward statics
- you want a battle-tested, tiny utility with broad React version compatibility

## When to avoid
- you are not working with React or component wrappers
- you use function components exclusively with no statics to hoist
- you need IE8 support without an Object.defineProperty polyfill

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: maintenance
- function: developer-tools
- domain: frontend, web-development, developer-tools
- platform: browser, cross-platform
- tags: react, higher-order-components, statics, utility, nodejs
