// Keep track of the last node passed to callbackRef | |
// so we can remove its event listeners. | |
const ref = useRef(); | |
// Use a callback ref instead of useEffect so that event listeners | |
// get changed in the case that the returned ref gets added to | |
// a different element later. With useEffect, changes to ref.current | |
// wouldn't cause a rerender and thus the effect would run again. | |

+1 - mouseenter
/mouseleave
is what I'm using in my implementation of this behavior.
After using a similar hook to show an element on hover, I realised that I can use onMouseEnter and onMouseLeave to get the same results.
// Usage
function App() {
const [isHovered, setIsHovered] = React.useState();
return (
<div
onMouseEnter={()=> setIsHovered(true)}
onMouseLeave={()=> setIsHovered(false)}
>
{isHovered ? '😁' : '☹️'}
</div>
);
}

It's all about reusability.
Can someone explain line 37 for me?
@KymaniHanson, basically they are assigning the node element to the ref value.
Where node element is your component which is using the hook ref. (line 8)

I concur with mouseenter and mouseleave! Great idea.
