Reusable Code
Utils
Utils are reusable pieces of logic that are not specific to vue and never contain any state. A good example is the date.util.ts
. Each function is pure and exported as a static function on a class and does not share any state with the other functions.
✅ Good example of a helper function
typescript
import dayjs from "@/helpers/dayjs";
export class DateUtil {
static formatShort(date: DateType | string): string {
return dayjs(date).format("DD/MM/YYYY");
}
}
❌ Bad example of a helper function
typescript
export class DataBaseUtil {
private database = new Database(); // This is not a pure function, it shares state with the database instance.
static async saveToDatabase(data: any): Promise<void> {
database.save(data)
}
}
