💡 Vue Tip: Run Heavy Computations Smoothly in Vue with Web Workers

Web Workers are a simple means for web content to run scripts in background threads. The worker thread can perform tasks without interfering with the user interface.

VueUse provides the useWebWorkerFn composable which provides a simple syntax to run heavy computations in a Web Worker without blocking the UI:

1import { useWebWorkerFn } from '@vueuse/core'
2
3const { workerFn } = useWebWorkerFn(() => {
4  // some heavy works to do in web worker
5})

Before you start using this function, I suggest you read the Web Workers documentation.
