useBreakpointValue

useBreakpointValue is a custom hook which returns the value for the current breakpoint from the provided responsive values object. This hook also responds to the window resizing and returning the appropriate value for the new window size.

The new variant and size props don't currently accept responsive values (specified as objects or arrays), but useBreakpointValue is a good way to achieve the same behavior.

Import#

import { useBreakpointValue } from '@chakra-ui/react'

Return value#

The useBreakpointValue hook returns the value for the current breakpoint.

Usage#

function Example() {
  const variant = useBreakpointValue({ base: 'outline', md: 'solid' })

  return (
    <VStack align='flex-start'>
      <Text>Resize your window to see the button variant change</Text>
      <Button colorScheme='teal' variant={variant}>
        Button
      </Button>
    </VStack>
  )
}
