## What it is
React-Resizable is a simple React component library that makes wrapped elements resizable via one or more drag handles, offering both a flexible <Resizable> and a simpler <ResizableBox> component. It is written in TypeScript and ships bundled type declarations.

## Use cases
- make a panel resizable in a React app
- add resize handles to an existing component
- build draggable resizable dashboard widgets
- create resizable sidebars or splitters
- let users resize boxes with corner or edge handles

## When to choose
- you need lightweight, focused resize functionality in React
- you want TypeScript types bundled without @types packages
- you need custom resize handles or multiple handle axes
- you are building grid or dashboard layouts with resizable items

## When to avoid
- you need full drag-and-drop grid layout out of the box (use react-grid-layout instead)
- your project is not React-based
- you need touch-only or mobile-first resizing with advanced gesture support
- you still require Flow type support

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: stable
- function: ui-components, frontend-framework
- domain: web-development, frontend
- platform: cross-platform
- tags: react, resize, resizable, drag-handles, typescript, web-server, nodejs
