Package description
The react-input-autosize package is a React component that automatically adjusts the width of the input field to fit the content typed by the user. This is particularly useful for tags input and other dynamic text inputs where the size of the content can change.
Autosizing input field
This feature allows the input field to automatically resize based on the input content. The width of the input will grow or shrink as the user types or deletes content.
{"import AutosizeInput from 'react-input-autosize';\n\nfunction MyComponent() {\n const [value, setValue] = useState('');\n\n return (\n <AutosizeInput\n value={value}\n onChange={(e) => setValue(e.target.value)}\n />\n );\n}"}This package provides a textarea element that automatically resizes as content changes. It's similar to react-input-autosize but is specifically designed for textarea elements instead of input fields.
Similar to react-autosize-textarea, this package is for textarea elements that automatically adjust their height to the content. It offers a similar functionality to react-input-autosize but for multi-line text areas.
This package is similar to react-input-autosize and provides an input field that adjusts its width to the content. It's a lightweight alternative that can be used outside of React as well.

npm install
npm dev
Then open localhost:8000 in a browser.
The easiest way to use React-Input-Autosize is to install it from NPM and include it in your own React build process (using Browserify, rollup, webpack, etc).
You can also use the umd build by including dist/AutosizeInput.js in your page. If you use this, make sure you have already included a umd React build.
npm install react-input-autosize --save
React-Input-Autosize generates an input field, wrapped in a <div> tag so it can detect the size of its value. Otherwise it behaves very similarly to a standard React input.
var AutosizeInput = require('react-input-autosize');
<AutosizeInput
name="form-field-name"
value={inputValue}
onChange={function(event) {
// event.target.value contains the new value
}}
/>
If your input uses custom font sizes, you will need to provide the custom size to AutosizeInput.
<AutosizeInput
name="form-field-name"
value={inputValue}
style={{ fontSize: 36 }}
onChange={function(event) {
// event.target.value contains the new value
}}
/>
AutosizeInput is a controlled input and depends on the value prop to work as intended. It does not support being used as an uncontrolled input.
