Improve examples about react-visibility-sensor HOT 2 OPEN

One idea of an example that might be particularly useful is how someone might use this library to force an element to be visible.

For instance, render a component that is found to be not visible after scrolling. Then, if the component is found to be not visible, find how far out of bounds it is and apply CSS to shift the element back into the viewport. Effectively, this is similar to a "Sticky" component, but this imperative perspective added by react-visibility-sensor might make it easier for users to adapt the process to fit their own use cases (i.e., navigation bar dropdowns moving inward if part of their content would have gone off the scren) where a typical Sticky component would not

Additionally, for making examples, I've found lately that plain React development build pages that house the component and simply spit out property values with just span tags or similar are plenty for me. This is because I can use React Dev Tools on these pages and manipulate property values myself, just as I would if I were developing an app that used the component.

Otherwise, I'd suggest CodeSandbox because it's a codepen-esque site built specifically for react components. The npm integration might make demos more valuable since users could involve other third-party components right there in the demo to see how well they play together.

Nice ideas. Agree about CodeSandbox. I haven't tried it yet but seems like it would be a great option for this.

Some other examples that come to mind would be thinking of some common use-cases, like:

• triggering an animation when an element becomes visible
• lazy-loading an image when it's <=200px outside the viewport
