A custom React hook for estimating the reading duration of a text.
Install use-reading-duration using npm:

Here is a simple example of how to use use-reading-duration:
import React from 'react';
import useReadingTime from 'use-reading-duration';
const MyComponent = () => {
const text = "Your long text goes here...";
const wordsPerMinute = 250;
const readingTime = useReadingTime(text, wordsPerMinute);
return (
<div>
<p>Estimated reading time: {readingTime} minutes</p>
<p>{text}</p>
</div>
);
};
In this example, useReadingTime is called with two arguments: the text to be read and the average reading speed in words per minute. The wordsPerMinute parameter is optional, the default value is 200.
