## What it is
A Vue.js plugin that adds async computed properties, letting component computed values resolve from Promises or async functions. It works with Vue 3 and handles loading states automatically.

## Use cases
- compute a value from an API call reactively in Vue
- use async/await inside Vue computed properties
- show a loading state while an async computed value resolves
- derive data from a Promise that depends on reactive inputs
- fetch derived data without manual watchers

## When to choose
- you use Vue 2 or Vue 3 and need computed properties backed by async operations
- you want reactive async data derivation without writing watchers and loading flags by hand

## When to avoid
- you use React, Svelte, or another non-Vue framework
- you only need simple synchronous computed properties
- you prefer Vue 3's built-in watchEffect or composition API patterns for async state
