+### `Vue.prototype` Replaced by `config.globalProperties`
+
+In Vue 2, `Vue.prototype` was commonly used to add properties that would be accessible in all components.
+
+The equivalent in Vue 3 is [`config.globalProperties`](/api/application-config.html#globalproperties). These properties will be copied across as part of instantiating a component within the application:
+
+```js
+// before - Vue 2
+Vue.prototype.$http = () => {}
+```
+
+```js
+// after - Vue 3
+const app = Vue.createApp({})
+app.config.globalProperties.$http = () => {}
+```
+
+Using `provide` (discussed [below](#provide-inject)) should also be considered as an alternative to `globalProperties`.

 ## Share Configurations Among Apps
 
 One way to share configurations e.g. components or directives among apps is to create a factory function, like this:
