how to use the debounce function from the lodash library in typescript

You can use the debounce function from lodash in typescript by installing the lodash library and importing the debounce function from it.

Here is an example code snippet that shows how to use the debounce function from lodash in typescript:

index.ts
import debounce from 'lodash.debounce';

function exampleFunction() {
  console.log('Function is executed');
}

const debouncedFunction = debounce(exampleFunction, 1000);

debouncedFunction();
debouncedFunction();
debouncedFunction();
debouncedFunction();
debouncedFunction();

In the above example code, we have imported the debounce function from the lodash.debounce module. We have defined an exampleFunction that we want to execute only after a delay of 1000 milliseconds. We have created a debouncedFunction by calling the debounce function and passing the exampleFunction as the first argument and the delay time in milliseconds as the second argument.

Finally, we have executed the debouncedFunction multiple times, but it will only execute the exampleFunction after a delay of 1000 milliseconds has passed since the last execution.

This is useful when you have an event that is triggered frequently, but you only want to execute a function after a certain amount of time has passed since the last event.
