A mutable state enhancer library for React
, built on top of @vue/reactivity
.
If you’re frustrated with the repetitive task of defining props
, emits
, slots
and attrs
in Vue, sometimes struggling to keep track of types, and you value the simplicity of managing everything with interfaces in React, then Veact is for you. Veact effortlessly merges the low cognitive overhead of Vue’s mutable state with the robust type support and flexibility of React’s JSX. It strikes a perfect balance between the strengths of both frameworks, providing a near-flawless development experience—without the complexity and potential pitfalls of useEffect in React.
Veact embodies what I believe is the “best of both worlds”—a powerful, yet intuitive library crafted to simplify and enhance your front-end development experience and efficiency.

Converts some of the 'raw Vue' data, which is not already wrapped in a hook, into reactive hook data to ensure proper reactivity within the component.
import React from 'react'
import { ref, useReactivity } from 'veact'
// ref data without hooks
const countRef = ref(0)
export const Component: React.FC = () => {
// to reactivity hook
const count = useReactivity(() => countRef)
const increment = () => {
count.value++
}
return (
<div>
<span>{count.value}</span>
<button onClick={increment}>increment</button>
</div>
)
}
//define a setupComponent
const Temp = defineSetupComponent({
setup(p: { prop1: string }) {
const a = ref(1);
const data = reactive({
count: 1,
add() {
this.count++;
},
});
return {
a,
data,
p: p.prop1,
};
},
render(ctx) {
return (
<div>
<h1>{ctx.p}</h1>
<h1>{ctx.data.count}</h1>
<h2>{ctx.a.value}</h2>
<Button onClick={() => ctx.a.value++}>测试Ref</Button>
<Button type="primary" onClick={() => ctx.data.add()}>
测试按钮

All APIs listed here are implemented and provided by Veact. For additional exported types, please refer to index.ts
.
Veact also re-exports all APIs from @vue/reactivity
.
Veact API | Corresponding Capability | Description |
---|---|---|
onMounted |
React componentDidMount() |
The function is called right after the component is mounted. |
onUpdated |
React componentDidUpdate() |
The function is called immediately after the component is re-rendered with updated props or state. (This method is not invoked during the initial render.) |
onBeforeUnmount |
React componentWillUnmount() |
The function is called right before the component is unmounted. |
useRef |
Vue ref() |
Takes an inner value and returns a reactive and mutable ref object, which has a single property .value that points to the inner value. |
useShallowRef |
Vue shallowRef() |
Shallow version of useRef() . |
useCustomRef |
Vue customRef() |
Creates a customized ref with explicit control over its dependency tracking and updates triggering. |
useReactive |
Vue reactive() |
Returns a reactive proxy of the object. |
useShallowReactive |
Vue shallowReactive() |
Shallow version of useReactive() . |
useReadonly |
Vue readonly() |
Takes an object (reactive or plain) or a ref and returns a readonly proxy to the original. |
useShallowReadonly |
Vue shallowReadonly() |
Shallow version of useReadonly() . |
useComputed |
Vue computed() |
Takes a getter function and returns a readonly reactive ref object for the returned value from the getter. It can also take an object with get and set functions to create a writable ref object. |
watch |
Vue watch() |
Watches one or more reactive data sources and invokes a callback function when the sources change. Unlike Vue (3.5.0), it does not support the option.flush . |
useWatch |
Vue watch() |
Same as above, this is the hook implementation of watch() . |
watchEffect |
Vue watchEffect() |
Runs a function immediately while reactively tracking its dependencies and re-runs it whenever the dependencies are changed. Unlike Vue (3.5.0), it does not support the option.flush . |
useWatchEffect |
Vue watchEffect() |
Same as above, this is the hook implementation of watchEffect() . |
useEffectScope |
Vue effectScope() |
Unlike effectScope in Vue, useEffectScope().run() will only execute once within the component and cannot contain any other hooks. |
useReactivity |
Internal implementation in Veact | Converts some of the 'raw Vue' data, which is not already wrapped in a hook, into reactive hook data to ensure proper reactivity within the component. |
