+If you return a function from the callback, it will be called when a) the callback runs again, or b) the last subscriber unsubscribes:
+
+```js
+import { derived } from 'svelte/store';
+
+const tick = derived(frequency, ($frequency, set) => {
+	const interval = setInterval(() => set(Date.now()), 1000 / frequency);
+
+	return () => {
+		clearInterval(interval);
+	}
+}, 'one moment...');

 In both cases, an array of arguments can be passed as the first argument instead of a single store.
