Basic Usage

In its most basic form, the useLocalStorage hook just needs the Local Storage key you wish to use. However, it's advised that you also provde a default value as a second argument in the event that the key does not yet exist in Local Storage.

The following usage will persist the username variable in a "name" key in Local Storage. It will have a default/initial value of an empty string "". This default value witll only be used if there is no value already in Local Storage.

import useLocalStorage from "react-hook-persist-data";

function MyComponent() {
  const [username, setUsername] = useLocalStorage("name", "");

  return (
    <>
      <input
        value={username}
        onChange={(e) => {
          setUsername(e.target.value);
        }}
      />
    </>
  );
}
