## What it is
A React component library for rendering and displaying PDF documents in web applications, built on top of Mozilla's PDF.js. It lets developers show PDFs as easily as images, with support for pages, annotations, and customization.

## Use cases
- display pdf files in a react app
- render pdf pages in a react component
- embed a pdf viewer in my web app
- show resume pdfs in browser
- build a pdf preview component
- view pdf documents without downloading

## When to choose
- you use React and need to display PDFs inline in your app
- you want a maintained, popular wrapper around PDF.js with a simple component API
- you need control over page rendering, zoom, and PDF interactions in the browser

## When to avoid
- you need to create, edit, or generate PDFs rather than display them
- you're not using React and want a standalone viewer
- you need server-side PDF manipulation or extraction

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: stable
- function: pdf-viewer, ui-components
- domain: pdf, frontend, web-development
- platform: browser
- tags: react, pdfjs, pdf-rendering, viewer-component, web-server, nodejs
