title: Custom stores
---

As long as an object correctly implements the `subscribe` method, it's a store. Beyond that, anything goes. It's very easy, therefore, to create custom stores with domain-specific logic.

For example, the `count` store from our earlier example could include `increment`, `decrement` and `reset` methods and avoid exposing `set` and `update`:

```js
function createCount() {
	const { subscribe, set, update } = writable(0);

	return {
		subscribe,
		increment: () => update(n => n + 1),
		decrement: () => update(n => n - 1),
		reset: () => set(0)
	};
}
```
