Advantages to using Eth-hooks​

EthersAppContext​

EthersAppContext allows you to access the current ethers.js context and information such as provider, signer, and account. This allows users to easily log into a web3 account using web3modal. You can also setup up overrides and multiple providers.

ContractAppContext​

Gives you a contractContextFactory that allows you to easily set up typed contracts, load typed contracts, create connectors, and access them with hooks anywhere in your app.

Caching & optional updates​

Caches the network RPC calls. This prevents unnecessary requests to the network. You can set up an update interval from every block, every (n) blocks, polling, onMount, onWindow focus, and other react-query update options.
