Using Modal

A modal component covers the entire screen. Underlying components are not subject to any events while the modal component is shown.

This component can be used to block user input while some operation is running or to show some information to the user.

To show or hide a modal the isOpen property is used. onShow and onHide properties can be specified to handle the related events right after the modal is shown and after the modal is hidden.
