## What it is
A small (<1 Kb) React hooks library providing useDebounce, useDebouncedCallback, and useThrottledCallback. It is lodash-compatible, tree-shakeable, TypeScript-typed, and server-rendering friendly.

## Use cases
- debounce a value in a react component
- debounce http requests as user types in a search input
- debounce callbacks with cancel and maxWait options
- throttle event handlers like scroll or resize in react
- avoid re-rendering on every keystroke in a controlled input

## When to choose
- you use React and need lightweight debouncing or throttling hooks
- you want lodash-compatible semantics with cancel, flush, and maxWait support
- you need SSR-friendly, tree-shakeable, typed hooks

## When to avoid
- you are not using React
- you need general-purpose debouncing outside of React components
- you need advanced scheduling beyond debounce/throttle

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: stable
- function: web-framework, developer-tools
- domain: web-development, frontend, developer-tools
- platform: cross-platform
- tags: react, react-hooks, debounce, throttle, typescript, npm-package, nodejs, web-server
