## What it is
A suite of React hooks and utilities for adaptive loading based on a user's network conditions, device memory, CPU cores, and media capabilities. It helps developers tailor experiences to low-end devices while progressively enhancing for high-end ones.

## Use cases
- serve lower-resolution images on slow connections
- disable heavy features on low-memory devices
- adapt code-splitting based on CPU core count
- respect user Data Saver preferences
- toggle video quality via Media Capabilities API

## When to choose
- building a React app that should adapt to device and network constraints
- targeting low-end devices with progressive enhancement

## When to avoid
- non-React projects
- apps that don't need device/network-adaptive behavior

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: experimental
- function: state-management, developer-tools
- domain: web-development, frontend, performance
- platform: browser
- tags: react-hooks, adaptive-loading, network-information-api, device-memory, progressive-enhancement, nodejs
