Overview
The React-Overlays repository is deprecated and not receiving updates, as it has been succeeded by the React-Restart UI repository. This library provides utilities for creating robust overlay components, which have been abstracted out of React-Bootstrap to allow better access to generic implementations of commonly-needed components. If you are looking for more complete overlays, modals, or tooltips that are ready to use out-of-the-box, React-Bootstrap is recommended as it is built using these components.
Features
- Utilities for creating robust overlay components
- Abstracted components from React-Bootstrap for better access
- Building blocks for creating polished components
Installation
To install React-Overlays, you can follow this simple guide:
- Run the following command to install the package via npm:
npm install react-overlays
- Import the necessary components in your code:
import { Overlay, Modal, Tooltip } from 'react-overlays';
- Start using these components in your React application for creating overlays, modals, and tooltips.
Summary
React-Overlays provides utilities for creating overlay components that have been abstracted from React-Bootstrap. It offers building blocks for developers to create polished components with the freedom to incorporate their preferred styles. While React-Overlays is deprecated, developers are encouraged to explore the more up-to-date React-Restart UI repository for similar functionalities.
