 This composable behaves identically to `useAsyncData` with the `lazy: true` option set. In other words, the async function does not block navigation. That means you will need to handle the situation where the data is `null` (or whatever value you have provided in a custom `default` factory function).

+```vue
+<template>
+  <div>
+    {{ pending ? 'Loading' : count }}
+  </div>
+</template>
+
+<script setup>
+const { pending, data: count } = useLazyAsyncData('count', () => $fetch('/api/count'))
+watch(count, (newCount) => {

+  // to its contents immediately, but you can watch it.

 ## `useFetch`
 
 Within your pages, components and plugins you can use `useFetch` to universally fetch from any URL.

 ## Isomorphic fetch
 
 When we call `fetch` in the browser, user headers like `cookie` will be directly sent to the API.
