Vue library

For the examples in this book, we are going to be using a hosted version of Vue.js from a CDN (Content Delivery Network) unpkg. This ensures that we have the latest version of Vue in our application, and also means we do not need to create and host other JavaScript files. Unpkg is an independent site that hosts popular libraries. It enables you to quickly and easily add a JavaScript package to your HTML, without having to download and host the file yourself:

      <script src="https://unpkg.com/vue"></script>

When deploying your code, it is a good practice to serve up your libraries from local files rather than relying on CDNs. This ensures that your implementation will work with the currently - saved version, should they release an update. It will also increase the speed of your application, as it will not need to request the file from another server.

The script block following the library include is where we are going to be writing all our JavaScript for our Vue application.
