Hey HN

I’ve built usehooks.io – a CLI-first React hook library with 30+ production-ready hooks for modern frontend development.

Why I built it React hooks are incredibly powerful, but I found myself constantly rewriting the same utilities—like useCounter, useDebounce, useGeolocation, etc. Many libraries felt too opinionated, under-documented, or weren’t keeping up with new APIs like Web Share, Vibration, or Bluetooth.

So I decided to create:

A comprehensive, modern hook library

With a zero-config CLI to install, remove, and explore hooks directly from the terminal

Fully typed with TypeScript-first DX

Documented with real-world examples

What’s inside 30+ reusable hooks across categories:

State & Lifecycle: useCounter, useToggle, usePrevious

Sensors & Devices: useAudioRecorder, useGeolocation, useVibration, useIsMobile

Browser APIs: useClipboard, useFullscreen, useWebShare

Network: useFetch, useNetworkInformation

And more...

A powerful CLI (npx usehooks-cli) with:

init, add, remove, list, info, update commands

Smart search by name, category, or description

MIT licensed. Built with a monorepo setup using pnpm workspaces.

 Feedback

I’d love your feedback! Are the hooks useful to you? Are there any you'd like to see added? Would you use the CLI in your projects?

Also open to contributors, ideas, or critiques. Thanks for reading!
