# <div align="center">React Accessible Dropdown Menu Hook</div>

This Hook handles all the accessibility logic when building a dropdown menu, dropdown button, etc., and leaves the design completely up to you. It also handles the logic for closing the menu when you click outside of it.

- ♿️ Fully accessible
- 📦 Written entirely in TypeScript
- 🔬 Thoroughly tested
- ⚡️ Zero dependencies
- ✨ Tiny size

## Quick start

Install with Yarn or npm:

```
yarn add react-accessible-dropdown-menu-hook
```

```
npm install react-accessible-dropdown-menu-hook
```

Import the Hook:

```tsx
import useDropdownMenu from 'react-accessible-dropdown-menu-hook';
```

Call the Hook, telling it how many items your menu will have:

```tsx
const { buttonProps, itemProps, isOpen } = useDropdownMenu(numberOfItems);
```

Spread the `buttonProps` onto a button:

```tsx
<button {...buttonProps}>Example</button>
```

Create the menu with the `role='menu'` property and spread `itemProps[x]` onto each item:

```tsx
<div className={isOpen ? 'visible' : ''} role='menu'>
    <a {...itemProps[0]} href='https://example.com'>Regular link</a>
    <a {...itemProps[1]} onClick={handleClick}>With click handler</a>
</div>
```

Done!
