how to use the debounce function from the underscore library in javascript

To use the debounce function from the Underscore library in JavaScript, first you need to include the library in your project. You can then use the function by passing in an event function as the first argument and the wait time in milliseconds as the second argument.

Here's an example code block:

index.tsx
// Include the Underscore library in your project
<script src="underscore.js"></script>

// Define your function to be debounced
function myFunction() {
  // Do something here
}

// Call the debounce function
var debouncedFunction = _.debounce(myFunction, 1000);

In this example, myFunction is the function that you want to debounce and 1000 is the wait time in milliseconds. The _.debounce function returns a new function that you can call whenever you want to run the debounced version of myFunction.

The resulting debouncedFunction can be called like any other function, but it will only execute once the specified wait time has passed since the last time it was called. This can be useful for functions that might be called multiple times in a short period of time, such as event handlers.
