Ahooks React Hooks Library

This skill provides comprehensive expertise for the ahooks React hooks library, covering all 76+ hooks with detailed documentation, examples, and best practices.

Quick Start

Basic Usage

import { useRequest, useMount, useSetState } from 'ahooks';

const MyComponent = () => {
  const { data, loading, error } = useRequest('/api/data');
  const [state, setState] = useSetState({ count: 0 });

  useMount(() => {
    console.log('Component mounted');
  });

  return <div>{data}</div>;
};

Common Patterns

  • State Management: useSetState, useToggle, useBoolean for complex state
  • Data Fetching: useRequest for API calls with caching, retry, polling
  • Performance: useDebounce, useThrottle for optimization
  • Lifecycle: useMount, useUnmount, useUpdateEffect for component lifecycle
