## What it is
A collection of React Hooks and Suspense-friendly React components that wrap browser Web APIs like device motion, geolocation, network status, and media elements. It provides hooks such as useGeoPosition, useMedia, and useWindowSize, plus components like <Img>, <Script>, and <Video> designed for React 16.8+ with Suspense.

## Use cases
- access browser geolocation in a react component
- use device motion and orientation sensors with react hooks
- track window size and scroll position in react
- load external scripts and stylesheets with suspense
- responsive media queries as a react hook
- suspense-friendly image and video components

## When to choose
- you are building a React 16.8+ app and want quick hook-based access to Web APIs
- you want Suspense-ready components for images, scripts, and media
- you prefer small composable utilities over heavyweight UI kits

## When to avoid
- you use a React version older than 16.8 without hooks support
- you need actively maintained libraries with recent updates and broad ecosystem support
- your project is not React-based
