During the development of your program, you might rely on simple println() statements to trace program execution flows and identify issues in your code.

When debugging issues in production, context is everything. While Sentry already provides rich error data like stack traces, breadcrumbs, and user information, understanding the application state at the time of an error can still help reproduce, fix and ship quickly. Sentry’s Pinia integration solves this by automatically capturing Pinia state wherever errors occur. Now you get the complete picture of your Vue or Nuxt application's state at the moment things went wrong.

Here’s a quick guide with links to other resources that will make the migration a little less painful.
