# Single-Page Timer Game
A dynamic single-page timer game built with React, designed to test your ability to stop the timer before it reaches a specified time. This project demonstrates the use of refs and React portals for creating dynamic and responsive web applications.
## Features
- **Dynamic Timer**: Test your reflexes by stopping the timer before it hits zero.
- **Player Name Input**: Enter your name to personalize the game experience.
- **React Refs**: Utilized to manage timer control and user input.
- **React Portals**: Used for rendering modals and overlays, enhancing dynamic UI capabilities.
- **Mobile Responsive**: Fully responsive design to ensure a seamless experience across different devices.

## Code Overview
### Components
- **App.jsx**: The main component that holds the game logic.
- **Player.jsx**: A component for entering the player's name.
- **ResultModal.jsx**: A reusable modal component rendered using React portals.
### Key Concepts
- **React Refs & forwardRefs**: Used to directly access and manipulate DOM elements, such as the timer.
- **React Portals**: Enable rendering of components outside the main DOM hierarchy, useful for modals and overlays.
### Example Code Snippet
```jsx
import { useState,useRef } from "react";
export default function Player() {
const playeName = useRef()
const [enteredPlayerName , setEnteredPlayerName] = useState(null)
function handleClick (){
setEnteredPlayerName(playeName.current.value);
playeName.current.value = "";
}
return (
Welcome {enteredPlayerName ? enteredPlayerName : 'unknown entity'}
