+Lifecycle hook providing ability to check component's mount state.  
+Gives a function that will return `true` if component mounted and `false` otherwise.
+
+## Usage
+
+```jsx
+import * as React from 'react';
+import {useMountedState} from 'react-use';
+
+const Demo = () => {
+  const isMounted = useMountedState();
+
+  React.useEffect(() => {
+    setTimeout(() => {
+      if (isMounted()) {
+        // ...
+      } else {
+        // ...
+      }
+    }, 1000);
+  });
+};
