Tooltip delay on hover with RXJS - reactjs

Question

I'm trying to add tooltip delay (300msemphasized text) using rxjs (without setTimeout()). My goal is to have this logic inside of TooltipPopover component which will be later be reused and delay will be passed (if needed) as a prop.
I'm not sure how can I add "delay" logic inside of TooltipPopover component using rxjs?
Portal.js
const Portal = ({ children }) => {
const mount = document.getElementById("portal-root");
const el = document.createElement("div");
useEffect(() => {
mount.appendChild(el);
return () => mount.removeChild(el);
}, [el, mount]);
return createPortal(children, el);
};
export default Portal;
TooltipPopover.js
import React from "react";
const TooltipPopover = ({ delay??? }) => {
return (
<div className="ant-popover-title">Title</div>
<div className="ant-popover-inner-content">{children}</div>
);
};
App.js
const App = () => {
return (
<Portal>
<TooltipPopover>
<div>
Content...
</div>
</TooltipPopover>
</Portal>
);
};
Then, I'm rendering TooltipPopover in different places:
ReactDOM.render(<TooltipPopover delay={1000}>
<SomeChildComponent/>
</TooltipPopover>, rootEl)

Here would be my approach:
mouseenter$.pipe(
// by default, the tooltip is not shown
startWith(CLOSE_TOOLTIP),
switchMap(
() => concat(timer(300), NEVER).pipe(
mapTo(SHOW_TOOLTIP),
takeUntil(mouseleave$),
endWith(CLOSE_TOOLTIP),
),
),
distinctUntilChanged(),
)
I'm not very familiar with best practices in React with RxJS, but this would be my reasoning. So, the flow would be this:
on mouseenter$, start the timer. concat(timer(300), NEVER) is used because although after 300ms the tooltip should be shown, we only want to hide it when mouseleave$ emits.
after 300ms, the tooltip is shown and will be closed mouseleave$
if mouseleave$ emits before 300ms pass, the CLOSE_TOOLTIP will emit, but you could avoid(I think) unnecessary re-renders with the help of distinctUntilChanged
