React using Functional component

I have seen the examples here:

https://github.com/DHTMLX/react-widgets

They all use Class components, I created a Functional component using the code below and it seems to work, I am just unsure about the cleanup - is it ok to use something like my code instead of a Class component?

import React, { useState, useEffect, useRef } from "react";
import PropTypes from "prop-types";
import { Toolbar as ToolbarDHX, TreeCollection } from "dhx-suite";
import ReactDOM from 'react-dom';
import "dhx-suite/codebase/suite.min.css";

function DhxToolbar2() {

    const containerRef = useRef(null);

    useEffect(() => {

		let toolbar = new ToolbarDHX(containerRef.current, {
			css: "dhx_widget--bordered dhx_widget--bg_white",
			navigationType: "pointer"
        });        
        
        toolbar.data.parse([
            {
                id: "new",
                type: "button",
                icon: "dxi-plus",
                value: "new"
            }
        ]);

        toolbar.events.on("Click", function(id,e) {
            switch(id) {
                case "new":
                    alert( "add new");
                    break;
            }
        });         

        return function cleanup() {
            toolbar && toolbar.destructor();
        }

    });

    return (
        <div
            style={{width: "100%"}}
            ref={containerRef}
            >
        </div>
    );
}

export default DhxToolbar2;

Please advise, this seems to work it is just the cleanup that I’m unsure about
