JavaScript, track window screen width

Question

I have a function that tells what the current width of the user's screen is but when i resize window to width less than 1024 that function doesnt output width less than 1024

  function xxx(){
    var x = window.screen.Width
    console.log(x)
    }
    setInterval(xxx, 1000)

output:

1024

even if screen width less than 1024 how can i fix this without using @media requests?

already tried:

window.screen.innerwidth

Like @YoussoufOumar said instead of using setInterval to get the user's screen width, use resize event to get the screen width whenever the screen resolution changes.

window.screen.width get only the user's screen width and it doesn't change according to the manual resizing of the browser

Instead window.innerWidth gets the browser width and it changes according to the manual resizing of the browser

function widthResizer(){
  var width = window.innerWidth
  console.log(width)
}

// Getting the width of the browser on load
widthResizer()

// Getting the width of the browser whenever the screen resolution changes.
window.addEventListener('resize', widthResizer)
