Creating a Store

typescript
3import { create } from 'zustand'
4
5const useStore = create((set) => ({
6  count: 0,
7  increment: () => set((state) => ({ count: state.count + 1 })),
8  decrement: () => set((state) => ({ count: state.count - 1 })),
9  reset: () => set({ count: 0 }),
10}))

Using the Store

typescript
3function Counter() {
4  const { count, increment, decrement, reset } = useStore()
5  
6  return (
7    <div>
8      <p>Count: {count}</p>
9      <button onClick={increment}>+</button>
10      <button onClick={decrement}>-</button>
11      <button onClick={reset}>Reset</button>
12    </div>
13  )
14}
