A React library that lets you print the content of React components directly from the browser via a hook-based API. It handles building the print window, copying styles and fonts, and provides lifecycle callbacks around the print dialog.

Use cases

• print a React component from the browser
• add a print button to a React page
• generate printable invoices or reports from React UI
• print dynamic content with custom fonts
• control document title when saving print output as PDF

When to choose

• you need to print specific React component content without leaving the browser
• you want a simple hook API with style/font handling and print lifecycle callbacks
• you need CSP nonce support or shadow DOM content in printed output

When to avoid

• you need server-side PDF generation rather than browser printing
• your project is not React-based
• you need pixel-perfect print layouts beyond what CSS print styles offer
