To make Vue composables accept refs, getters, and plain values, implement MaybeRef and MaybeRefOrGetter patterns. This normalizes inputs using toValue and toRef, ensuring your composable maintains reactivity across various dynamic and static data sources.

The best way to normalize reactive inputs in Vue.js composables is utilizing the toValue and toRef utilities. These functions standardize MaybeRefOrGetter inputs into predictable reactive references within watchers and effects, preventing broken state management.

To refactor an existing Vue composable to support MaybeRefOrGetter inputs, update the function signatures to accept these flexible types and process them internally using toValue. This ensures your existing composable handles both static values and dynamic reactive sources consistently.

Your Vue composable loses reactivity when passed a getter or plain value if it lacks proper input normalization. By implementing MaybeRefOrGetter patterns and unwrapping values with toValue inside reactive effects, you ensure consistent state tracking across all input types.

TypeScript is highly recommended to build library-grade Vue composables with flexible inputs because it provides type safety for MaybeRef and MaybeRefOrGetter patterns. This ensures your reusable functions correctly handle plain values, refs, and getters without breaking reactivity.
