Modal react Code Snippet in 2025

Renders a Modal component, controllable through events.

• Define a keydownHandler that handles all keyboard events and calls onClose when the Esc key is pressed.
• Use the useEffect() hook to add or remove the keydown event listener to the document, calling keydownHandler for every event.
• Add a styled <span> element that acts as a close button, calling onClose when clicked.
• Use the isVisible prop passed down from the parent to determine if the modal should be displayed or not.
• To use the component, import Modal only once and then display it by passing a boolean value to the isVisible attribute.
