fargo 1a822493ba format: apply repo prettier (3.8.1) to the folded skills tree
963 markdown files reformatted with the repository's pinned prettier so
pnpm format:check covers the folded tree like every other repo file.

The formatter's embedded-language pass also normalized code fences
(TS semicolons, closed HTML tags in examples, lowercased CSS hex colors,
one renumbered list that skipped an index). Alphanumeric token deltas vs
the fold commit were audited file-by-file; all are formatter-equivalent
markup normalizations plus the four sanitized skills.

Watch

watchArray

Watch for an array with additions and removals.

Usage

Similar to watch, but provides the added and removed elements to the callback function. Pass { deep: true } if the list is updated in place with push, splice, etc.

import { watchArray } from '@vueuse/core';

const list = ref([1, 2, 3]);

watchArray(list, (newList, oldList, added, removed) => {
  console.log(newList); // [1, 2, 3, 4]
  console.log(oldList); // [1, 2, 3]
  console.log(added); // [4]
  console.log(removed); // []
});

onMounted(() => {
  list.value = [...list.value, 4];
});

Type Declarations

  value: V,
  oldValue: OV,
  added: V,
  removed: OV,
  onCleanup: (cleanupFn: () => void) => void,
) => any;
/**

export declare function watchArray<T, Immediate extends Readonly<boolean> = false>(
  source: WatchSource<T[]> | T[],
  cb: WatchArrayCallback<T[], Immediate extends true ? T[] | undefined : T[]>,
  options?: WatchOptions<Immediate>,
