addEventListener("availabilitychanged", (event) => { })
onavailabilitychanged = (event) => { }

Examples
To be informed when Bluetooth availability changes, you can add a handler to your Bluetooth instance using addEventListener(), like this:
js
Bluetooth.addEventListener("availabilitychanged", (event) => {
const availability = event.value;
});
Alternatively, you can use the Bluetooth.onavailabilitychanged event handler property to establish a handler for the availabilitychanged event:
js
Bluetooth.onavailabilitychanged = (event) => {
const availability = event.value;
};
