 ## Async Update Queue
 
-In case you haven't noticed yet, Vue performs DOM updates **asynchronously**. Whenever a data change is observed, it will open a queue and buffer all the data changes that happen in the same event loop. If the same watcher is triggered multiple times, it will be pushed into the queue only once. This buffered de-duplication is important in avoiding unnecessary calculations and DOM manipulations. Then, in the next event loop "tick", Vue flushes the queue and performs the actual (already de-duped) work. Internally Vue uses `MutationObserver` if available for the asynchronous queuing and falls back to `setTimeout(fn, 0)`.

Internally Vue tries native `Promise.then` and `MutationObserver` for the asynchronous queuing and falls back to `setTimeout(fn, 0)`.
 
 For example, when you set `vm.someData = 'new value'`, the component will not re-render immediately. It will update in the next "tick", when the queue is flushed. Most of the time we don't need to care about this, but it can be tricky when you want to do something that depends on the post-update DOM state. Although Vue.js generally encourages developers to think in a "data-driven" fashion and avoid touching the DOM directly, sometimes it might be necessary to get your hands dirty. In order to wait until Vue.js has finished updating the DOM after a data change, you can use `Vue.nextTick(callback)` immediately after the data is changed. The callback will be called after the DOM has been updated. For example:
