A React library that renders an invisible padding zone around an element and fires a callback when the mouse enters it. It is commonly used to trigger prefetching before a user actually clicks.
Use cases
- prefetch data when the mouse approaches a button
- detect when cursor is near an element in react
- trigger actions before user clicks
- add hover intent buffer around interactive elements
- load route chunks on mouse proximity
When to choose
- you want click-prefetching or proximity-based reactions in a React app
- you need a lightweight mouse-proximity detector with configurable padding
When to avoid
- you are not using React
- you need a maintained library - it has not been updated since 2018
- you need touch or keyboard-based proximity detection
