Sample

import React, { useState } from 'react';
import {
  LocalEvent,
  dispatchLocalEvent,
  useLocalEventCreate,
  useLocalEvent,
} from '@react-libraries/use-local-event';

type Action =
  | { readonly type: 'add_a'; payload: number }
  | { readonly type: 'add_b'; payload: number };

// Event Sending Component
const Sender = ({ event }: { event: LocalEvent<Action> }) => {
  return (
    <div>
      <button onClick={() => dispatchLocalEvent(event, { type: 'add_a', payload: 100 })}>A</button>
      <button onClick={() => dispatchLocalEvent(event, { type: 'add_b', payload: 100 })}>B</button>
    </div>
  );
};

// Event Reception Component
const Recv = ({ event }: { event: LocalEvent<Action> }) => {
  const [group, setGroup] = useState('a');
  const [value, setValue] = useState(0);
  useLocalEvent(event, ({ type, payload }) => {
    type === 'add_a' && group === 'a' && setValue((v) => v + payload);
    type === 'add_b' && group === 'b' && setValue((v) => v + payload);
  });
  return (
    <div>
      <form>
        <label>
          <input type="radio" name="group" checked={group === 'a'} onChange={() => setGroup('a')} />
          A
        </label>
        <label>
          <input type="radio" name="group" checked={group === 'b'} onChange={() => setGroup('b')} />
          B
        </label>
        <div>{value}</div>
      </form>
    </div>
  );
};

// Parent component
const App = () => {
  const event = useLocalEventCreate<Action>();
  return (
    <>
      <Recv event={event} />
      <hr />
      <Recv event={event} />
      <hr />
      <Sender event={event} />
    </>
