What is the best use case for the Initialize event of a Screen?

The Initialize event of a Screen is particularly suited for setting the default value of a Local Variable. This event is executed when the Screen is first rendered, making it an ideal opportunity to define initial conditions or settings for variables that will be used throughout that Screen's lifecycle.

By setting the default value of a Local Variable in the Initialize event, you ensure that the variable has a predetermined state when the user accesses the Screen. This can be essential for ensuring that your application behaves predictably and that any bindings or calculations dependent on that variable have the correct starting point.

Using the Initialize event specifically for this purpose enhances the clarity and maintainability of the application, as it neatly encapsulates the logic for variable instantiation within a lifecycle event that is explicitly intended for initial setup.
