On: Stop Copy-Pasting That "Click Outside" Snippet – Use This Hook Instead

I kept writing the same useEffect boilerplate every time I needed to close a dropdown or modal on outside click. So I packaged it.

npm install @kitsunechaos/use-outside-click

Usage:

  useOutsideClick(ref, () => setOpen(false))
