# Using React hooks
Use the growiReact
function from the @growi/pluginkit (opens new window) package.
// In your plugin code
import React from 'react';
import { growiReact } from '@growi/pluginkit';
// Get GROWI's React instance
const growiReactInstance = growiReact(React);
// Now hooks can be used
const { useState, useEffect, useCallback } = growiReactInstance;
TIP
How React instance switching works
- If it's a production environment (
process.env.NODE_ENV === 'production'
) andwindow.GrowiFacade.react
exists, GROWI's React instance is used. - Otherwise (like in development environments), use regular React import.
- This allows you to use regular React when developing the plugin individually, and GROWI's React instance when running on GROWI.
