Vue.js - Which component lifecycle should be used for fetching data?

Question

After reading one of Alligator.io posts about Vue that was saying that mounted lifecycle is a bad place to use http get. I was wondering if there are any guidelines to how prope

Answer 1

I`m prefer call API in created hook. Quote from alligator.io:

In the created hook, you will be able to access reactive data and events are active. Templates and Virtual DOM have not yet been mounted or rendered.

So you easy can access to data to parse and save response from a server if you need.
