## What it is
Retoggle is a collection of React hooks that provide UI controls (knobs) to manipulate component state from outside the component, similar to Storybook Knobs. It includes toggles for text, numbers, booleans, ranges, colors, object editors, logging, and a time-travel state inspector.

## Use cases
- tweak react component state from an external ui panel
- add storybook-knobs-like controls to any react app
- log and inspect component state live while developing
- travel back in time through a variable's state history
- build custom debug toggles for react hooks

## When to choose
- you want lightweight, hook-based state knobs without adopting storybook
- you need quick runtime controls for prototyping react components
- you want a themeable, extensible inspector panel for debugging state

## When to avoid
- you already use storybook and its addons cover your needs
- you need a maintained library - the last release was in 2020
- you need state management for production, not dev tooling

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: maintenance
- function: ui-components, state-management, developer-tools
- domain: frontend, web-development, developer-tools
- platform: browser, cross-platform
- tags: react-hooks, storybook-knobs, debugging, component-state, inspector, nodejs
