Use Throttle

`@react-hooks-hub/use-throttle` hook allows you to throttle the execution of a function. Throttling is a technique used to limit the rate at which a function can be called, making it especially useful in scenarios where you want to control how frequently certain actions are performed (ex: check the cursor position).

import { useThrottle } from '@react-hooks-hub/use-throttle';

function CursorPositionTracker() {
  const [cursorPosition, setCursorPosition] = useState({ x: 0, y: 0 });

  // Create a throttled version of the function to update cursor position
  const updateCursorPosition = useThrottle((e) => {
    setCursorPosition({ x: e.clientX, y: e.clientY });
  }, 100); // Throttle to 100ms

  // Attach an event listener to track cursor movement
  const handleMouseMove = (e) => {
    updateCursorPosition(e);
  };

  return (
    <div>
      <h1>Cursor Position Tracker</h1>
      <p>Move your mouse around to see the cursor's position:</p>
      <div
        onMouseMove={handleMouseMove}
        style={{
          width: '300px',
          height: '300px',
          border: '1px solid #ccc',
          padding: '10px',
        }}
      >
        <p>Cursor X: {cursorPosition.x}</p>
        <p>Cursor Y: {cursorPosition.y}</p>
      </div>
    </div>
  );
}

export default CursorPositionTracker;
