## What it is
vue-resource is an HTTP client plugin for Vue.js that provides services for making web requests via XMLHttpRequest or JSONP. It supports the Promise API, URI Templates, and request/response interceptors, and works with Vue 1.0 and 2.0.

## Use cases
- make http requests from a vue component
- call rest apis in vue.js app
- add ajax to vue 2 project
- handle jsonp requests in the browser
- add request and response interceptors in vue
- replace axios with a lightweight vue http client

## When to choose
- you are on Vue 1.x or 2.x and want a compact, Vue-integrated HTTP client
- you need JSONP support or URI templates
- bundle size matters and you want a ~5KB gzipped client

## When to avoid
- you are using Vue 3, which vue-resource does not support
- you prefer the community-standard axios or the native fetch API
- you need modern features like automatic JSON transforms or broad interceptor ecosystems
