The Vue.js component lifecycle includes several key stages:
- beforeCreate — initialization, data and events are not yet available.
- created — data and methods are available, but the DOM is not yet created.
- beforeMount — before the component is mounted to the DOM.
- mounted — the component is mounted, and you can work with the DOM.
- beforeUpdate — before reactive data updates.
- updated — after the DOM has been updated.
- beforeUnmount (Vue 3) / beforeDestroy (Vue 2) — before the component is removed.
- unmounted / destroyed — after the component has been removed.
I often used mounted for initializing third-party libraries and API requests, created for preparing data, and beforeUnmount for cleaning timers or unsubscribing from events.
