+Within your pages, components, and plugins you can use useAsyncData to get access to data that resolves asynchronously.

 * **error**: an error object if the data fetching failed
 
 By default, Nuxt waits until a `refresh` is finished before it can be executed again. Passing `true` as parameter skips that wait.

+const { data, pending, error, refresh } = useAsyncData(
