Use Local Storage with React hooks
npm install react-use-localstorage
_depends on stable v16.8.1~_
Access Local Storage using React hooks.
Fork it on CodeSandbox

``javascript
import React from 'react';
import ReactDOM from 'react-dom';
import useLocalStorage from 'react-use-localstorage';
import './styles.css';
function App() {
const [item, setItem] = useLocalStorage('name', 'Initial Value');
return (
const rootElement = document.getElementById('root');
ReactDOM.render(
`
If you are using Gatsby or other SSR frameworks, such as Next.js, refer to this workaround by @hencatsmith.
You need to make sure that window is available.
`js`
const useSsrLocalStorage = (
key: string,
initial: string
): [string, React.Dispatch
return typeof window === 'undefined'
? [initial, (value: string) => undefined]
: useLocalStorage(key, initial);
};
