why dose useLocalStorage use custom event?

[jakkku]

Hi, first of all, thank you for providing a nice library. I love this and am learning a lot

I have some questions. In your code, The useLocalStorage hook uses a custom event internally. However, custom events could be triggered by not only internal function, but also other external functions anywhere.

I thought using local scope variable is more safe. but if you have some reason using CustomEvent, could i ask??

// This is an example of a third-party store
// that you might need to integrate with React.

// If your app is fully built with React,
// we recommend using React state instead.

let nextId = 0;
let todos = [{ id: nextId++, text: 'Todo #1' }];
let listeners = [];

export const todosStore = {
  addTodo() {
    todos = [...todos, { id: nextId++, text: 'Todo #' + nextId }]
    emitChange();
  },
  subscribe(listener) {
    listeners = [...listeners, listener];
    return () => {
      listeners = listeners.filter(l => l !== listener);
    };
  },
  getSnapshot() {
    return todos;
  }
};

function emitChange() {
  for (let listener of listeners) {
    listener();
  }
}
