Usage

// Create a reactive state and set default valueconst count = useState('counter', () => Math.round(Math.random() * 100))

Because the data inside useState will be serialized to JSON, it is important that it does not contain anything that cannot be serialized, such as classes, functions or symbols.
useState is a reserved function name transformed by the compiler, so you should not name your own function useState.

Type

useState<T>(init?: () => T | Ref<T>): Ref<T>useState<T>(key: string, init?: () => T | Ref<T>): Ref<T>
  • key: A unique key ensuring that data fetching is properly de-duplicated across requests. If you do not provide a key, then a key that is unique to the file and line number of the instance of useState will be generated for you.
  • init: A function that provides initial value for the state when not initiated. This function can also return a Ref.
  • T: (typescript only) Specify the type of state
