The library is framework agnostic, but if you wanna use with React, for example:

constuseFilter=({ keys, data })=>{const[inputText,setInputText]=useState('');constmyFilter=createFilter(keys);constfiltered=data.filter(myFilter(inputText));return{ inputText, setInputText, filtered };};constApp=()=>{const{ inputText, setInputText, filtered }=useFilter({keys: ['user.name','subject','dest.name'],data: sampleData,});return(<divclassName="App"><inputtype="text"value={inputText}onChange={event=>setInputText(event.target.value)}/>{JSON.stringify(filtered)}</div>);};
