  Hooks to manage the slide lifecycle.

# Slide Hooks

Slidev provides a set of hooks to help you manage the slide lifecycle:

```ts twoslash
import { onSlideEnter, onSlideLeave, useIsSlideActive } from '@slidev/client'

const isActive = useIsSlideActive()

onSlideEnter((to, from) => {
  /* Called whenever the slide becomes active */
})

onSlideLeave((to, from) => {
  /* Called whenever the slide becomes inactive */
})
```

You can also use  to access other useful context information.

::: warning

In the slide component, `onMounted` and `onUnmounted` hooks are not available, because the component instance is preserved even when the slide is not active. Use `onSlideEnter` and `onSlideLeave` instead.
