Implement useTimeout hook

[bharat-dussa]

useTimeout

Description: A hook for managing timeouts, allowing you to execute a function after a specified delay. This is useful for delaying actions like hiding UI elements or triggering events.

Parameters:

• callback: () => void – The function to execute after the delay.
• delay: number – The delay time in milliseconds before executing the callback. If set to null, the timeout will be cleared.

Returns:

• start: () => void – A function to start the timeout.
• clear: () => void – A function to clear the timeout before it executes.

Example:

import { useTimeout } from 'your-library';

const ExampleComponent = () => {
  const [visible, setVisible] = useState(true);
  const { start, clear } = useTimeout(() => setVisible(false), 3000);

  return (
    <div>
      <button onClick={start}>Hide after 3 seconds</button>
      <button onClick={clear}>Cancel Timeout</button>
      {visible && <p>This will disappear after 3 seconds</p>}
    </div>
  );
};
