The Unpaid Backbone of Open Source: Solo Maintainers Face Increasing Security Demands
Solo open source maintainers face burnout and security challenges, with 60% unpaid and 60% considering quitting.
@fluentui/react-component-ref
Advanced tools
@fluentui/react-component-ref is a utility package from Fluent UI that provides a way to handle React refs in a more flexible and controlled manner. It is particularly useful for managing refs in complex component hierarchies and for forwarding refs to DOM elements or other components.
Forwarding Refs
This feature allows you to forward refs to DOM elements or other components. In this example, the `Ref` component is used to forward the `inputRef` to the `input` element.
import { Ref } from '@fluentui/react-component-ref';
import React, { useRef } from 'react';
const MyComponent = () => {
const inputRef = useRef(null);
return (
<Ref innerRef={inputRef}>
<input type="text" />
</Ref>
);
};
Handling Complex Component Hierarchies
This feature is useful for managing refs in complex component hierarchies. In this example, `Ref` is used to forward the `divRef` to the `InnerComponent`, which in turn forwards it to the `div` element.
import { Ref } from '@fluentui/react-component-ref';
import React, { useRef } from 'react';
const InnerComponent = React.forwardRef((props, ref) => (
<div ref={ref} {...props} />
));
const OuterComponent = () => {
const divRef = useRef(null);
return (
<Ref innerRef={divRef}>
<InnerComponent />
</Ref>
);
};
The `react-ref` package provides similar functionality for managing and forwarding refs in React applications. It offers a simple API for creating and forwarding refs, but it may not be as feature-rich or integrated with Fluent UI as `@fluentui/react-component-ref`.
