const Component = (props) => {
  useEscapeKey(() => console.log('I have pressed escape key!'));

This is useful if you don't want to bind event to current window, but for example to parent window (window.parent)

If you use in your function any values from the outer scope that change over time, you should provide them as dependencies so function will get executed with latest values. This get passed as second argument into useEffect hook.
