What are the lifecycle hooks in Vue's keep-alive component?

In Vue, the keep-alive component has two main lifecycle hooks: activated and deactivated. The activated hook is called when a kept-alive component is activated, while the deactivated hook is called when it is deactivated.

Can you explain when to use these hooks?

You would use the activated hook to perform actions when the component becomes active, like fetching data. The deactivated hook is useful for cleanup tasks, such as canceling timers or saving state.

Are there any examples of using these hooks?

Sure! For example, in the activated hook, you might fetch data from an API, and in the deactivated hook, you could clear a timeout that was set in the component.

What happens if I don't use these hooks?

If you don't use these hooks, the component will still function, but you may miss out on optimizing performance or managing resources effectively.
