+A lightweight React hooks library for building timers, stopwatches, and real-time clocks with minimal boilerplate.
+
+Docs: https://crup.github.io/react-timer-hook/
+Package: @crup/react-timer-hook
+Install: npm install @crup/react-timer-hook@latest
+Runtime: Node 18+ and React 18+
+Repository: https://github.com/crup/react-timer-hook
+
+Public exports:
+- @crup/react-timer-hook: useTimer(options) for one timer lifecycle.
+- @crup/react-timer-hook/group: useTimerGroup(options) for many keyed independent lifecycles with one shared scheduler.
+- @crup/react-timer-hook/schedules: useScheduledTimer(options) for schedule-enabled timers with timing context.
+- @crup/react-timer-hook/duration: durationParts(milliseconds) for duration display helper values.
+- @crup/react-timer-hook/diagnostics: consoleTimerDiagnostics(options) for optional event logging.
+
+Core rules:
+- Use timer.now for wall-clock deadlines and clocks.
+- Use timer.elapsedMilliseconds for active elapsed duration.
+- Use endWhen(snapshot) to end a lifecycle.
+- Use onError(error, snapshot, controls) when onEnd can throw or reject.
+- Use cancel(reason) for terminal early stops.
+- Keep formatting, timezone, retries, and business rules in userland.
+
+Schedules:
+- Use useScheduledTimer() from @crup/react-timer-hook/schedules.
+- Schedules are opt-in and default to overlap: "skip".
+- Schedule callbacks receive context with scheduledAt, firedAt, nextRunAt, overdueCount, and effectiveEveryMs.
+- Schedule callbacks can define onError(error, snapshot, controls, context); otherwise timer or item onError is used.
+
+Recipes:
+- Wall clock: new Date(timer.now).
+- Stopwatch: render timer.elapsedMilliseconds.
+- Absolute countdown: Math.max(0, expiresAt - timer.now).
+- Pausable countdown: durationMs - timer.elapsedMilliseconds.
+- OTP resend: disable the resend button until elapsedMilliseconds reaches the cooldown.
+- Polling: use schedules with overlap: "skip".
+- Many independent timers: use useTimerGroup().
