+## Composables and Helper Functions
 
 Nuxt auto-imports helper functions, composables and Vue APIs to use across your application without explicitly importing them. Based on the directory structure, every Nuxt application can also use auto-imports for its own components, composables and plugins. Components, composables or plugins can use these functions.

 You can also auto-import functions exported from custom folders or third-party packages by configuring the [`imports` section](/docs/api/configuration/nuxt-config#imports) of your `nuxt.config` file.
