You can use a combination of Vuex actions, getters, computed properties and watchers to listen to changes on a Vuex state value.

HTML Code:

JavaScript Code:

'use strict'

Vue.use(Vuex)

const { mapGetters, mapActions, Store } = Vuex

new Vue({
    el: '#app',
  store: new Store({
    state: {
      color: 'red'
    },
    getters: {
      color({color}) {
        return color
      }
    },
    mutations: {
      setColor(state, payload) {
        state.color = payload
      }
    },
    actions: {
      setColor({commit}, payload) {
        commit('setColor', payload)
      }
    }
  }),
  methods: {
    ...mapGetters([
        'color'
    ]),
    ...mapActions([
        'setColor'
    ])
  },
  computed: {
    computedColor: {
        set(value) {
        this.setColor(value)
      },
      get() {
        return this.color()
      }
    },
    style() {
        return `background-color: ${this.computedColor};`
    }
  },
  watch: {
    computedColor() {
        console.log(`Watcher in use @${new Date().getTime()}`)
    }
  }
})
