</template>

<script>
import { ref, onMounted } from 'vue';

export default {
  setup() {
    const highchartsRef = ref(null);
    onMounted(() => {
      // access the `chart` instance with template refs
      const { chart } = highchartsRef.value;
    });
    return {
      highchartsRef,
      chartOptions: {},
