Lifecycle Hooks

Explore the Vue.js lifecycle hooks to understand how they control component behavior at each stage. Learn how to use hooks like beforeCreate, created, mounted, beforeUpdate, updated, beforeDestroy, and destroyed to manage data, DOM updates, and cleanup tasks in your Vue applications.

Lifecycle hooks

When a Vue instance passes through its lifecycle, it offers some functions that are executed at every transitional step in the lifecycle so that certain tasks can be performed during these stages. These functions are called “lifecycle hooks”.

There are a total of eight lifecycle hooks. There are two hooks for each lifecycle stage as shown below:

  1. Creation hooks
    • beforeCreate
    • created
  2. Mounting hooks
    • beforeMount
    • mounted
  3. Updating hooks
    • beforeUpdate
    • updated
  4. Destruction hooks
    • beforeDestroy
    • destroyed
