## What it is
A Vue.js component plugin for cropping images in the browser, supporting Vue 2 and Vue 3. It offers rotation, zooming, fixed aspect ratios, output format/quality control, and preview/download of cropped results.

## Use cases
- crop profile pictures in a vue app
- let users upload and crop avatars
- crop images to a fixed aspect ratio in vue
- rotate and zoom images before cropping
- export cropped images as jpeg png or webp
- image clipping component for vue2 and vue3

## When to choose
- you need a lightweight, pure-Vue image cropper with no heavy dependencies
- you need Vue 2 and Vue 3 support in one package
- you need fixed-ratio cropping, rotation, and zoom controls out of the box

## When to avoid
- you are starting a new Vue 3 project - the author recommends the successor cropper-next-vue
- you need cropping outside the Vue ecosystem
- you need advanced features like multi-region or freeform path cropping
