# Pinia

Pinia is the official state management library for Vue, designed to be intuitive and type-safe. It supports both Options API and Composition API styles, with first-class TypeScript support and devtools integration.

> The skill is based on Pinia v4.0.3, generated at 2026-09-25.

## Key Recommendations

- **Prefer Setup Stores** for complex logic, composables, and watchers
- **Use `storeToRefs()`** when destructuring state/getters to preserve reactivity
- **Actions can be destructured directly** - they're bound to the store
- **Call stores inside functions** not at module scope, especially for SSR
- **Add HMR support** to each store for better development experience
- **Use `@pinia/testing`** for component tests with mocked stores
