semantic names with counters

When generating unique identifiers that may have multiple instances, combine semantic base names with counters or indices to ensure both readability and uniqueness. Use meaningful component names, scope IDs, or descriptive strings as the base, then append a counter to distinguish multiple instances.

When generating unique identifiers that may have multiple instances, combine semantic base names with counters or indices to ensure both readability and uniqueness. Use meaningful component names, scope IDs, or descriptive strings as the base, then append a counter to distinguish multiple instances.

Use clear separators (like ‘:’ or ‘-‘) between the semantic part and the counter to improve readability and parsing:

// Good: semantic base + separator + counter
const defaultKey = this.$options._scopeId || this.$options.name || ''
this._fetchKey = key + ':' + getCounter(key)

// Results in readable keys like:
// 'MyComponent:0', 'MyComponent:1'
// 'UserProfile-0', 'UserProfile-1'

This pattern prevents identifier collisions while maintaining semantic meaning, making debugging and state inspection much easier than using purely numeric or random identifiers.
