CodePudding user response：

You can use setTimeOut() for check user typing.

useEffect(() => {
    let timeout;

    refInput.current.addEventListener('keypress', () => { /* user is typing */
        if (timeout) clearTimeout(timeout);
        userIsActive();

        timeout = setTimeout(() => {
            userIsNotActive();
        }, 30000 /* 30 second */);
    });
}, []);
