## What it is
A HackerNews clone built with Vue.js 1.x, vue-router, and the official HackerNews API, demonstrating routing, comments, and realtime updates. It serves as an official example/demo project for learning Vue.js component patterns with Webpack and vue-loader.

## Use cases
- learn vue.js by example
- see how to build a hackernews clone
- example of vue-router usage
- learn single-file vue components
- reference for building a feed app with comments
- study webpack setup for vue projects

## When to choose
- you want a small, official example of Vue 1.x patterns
- you are learning vue-router and single-file components
- you need a reference for consuming the HackerNews API in a frontend app

## When to avoid
- you need a production-ready HackerNews client
- you are using Vue 2 or 3 (use vue-hackernews-2.0 instead)
- you need maintained, up-to-date build tooling
