How can I use Vuex with Vue Router in my Vue.js application?

You can integrate Vuex with Vue Router by using Vuex to manage your application's state and Vue Router to handle navigation. First, ensure you have both Vuex and Vue Router installed in your project.

Can you give me a simple example of how to set this up?

Sure! First, create a Vuex store to manage your state. Then, in your main.js file, import both Vuex and Vue Router, and use them in your Vue instance. Here's a basic setup:

import Vue from 'vue';
import Vuex from 'vuex';
import VueRouter from 'vue-router';

Vue.use(Vuex);
Vue.use(VueRouter);

const store = new Vuex.Store({
  state: {},
  mutations: {},
});

const router = new VueRouter({
  routes: []
});

new Vue({
  store,
  router,
}).$mount('#app');

What about using Vuex to manage route-specific data?

You can use Vuex to store data that is specific to certain routes. For example, you can fetch data in a route's beforeEnter guard and commit it to the Vuex store. This way, the data is available to components rendered by that route.
