Debounces the given value.
- Create a custom hook that takes a `value` and a `delay`.
- Use the `useState()` hook to store the debounced value.
- Use the `useEffect()` hook to update the debounced value every time `value` is updated.
- Use `setTimeout()` to create a timeout that delays invoking the setter of the previous state variable by `delay` ms.
- Use `clearTimeout()` to clean up when dismounting the component.
- This is particularly useful when dealing with user input.
```jsx
const useDebounce = (value, delay) => {
const [debouncedValue, setDebouncedValue] = React.useState(value);
React.useEffect(() => {
const handler = setTimeout(() => {
setDebouncedValue(value);
}, delay);
return () => {
clearTimeout(handler);
};
}, [value]);
return debouncedValue;
};
```
```jsx
const Counter = () => {
const [value, setValue] = React.useState(0);
const lastValue = useDebounce(value, 500);
return (
<div>
<p>
Current: {value} - Debounced: {lastValue}
</p>
<button onClick={() => setValue(value + 1)}>Increment</button>
</div>
);
};
ReactDOM.createRoot(document.getElementById('root')).render(
<Counter />
);
```
