react-dedup-async

https://www.npmjs.com/package/react-dedup-async

React hook to dedup calls to an async callback.

Calls which are overriden resolve to the next 'winning' call's result.

/**
 * React hook to dedupe async calls. The latest args wins.
 *
 * If idle, it runs the args on the latest callback immediately, returning the promise.
 * If busy, it returns a promise that resolves to the next latest call, ignoring all intermediate calls.
