import UserIdleTracker from "user-idle-tracker";

And now you can use it like:

function callback() {
  console.log("A function to be called when user is considered idle");
}

const idleTime = 1000; // time in milliseconds defined to be considered idle

const tracker = new UserIdleTracker(callback, idleTime);
