title: How to use a jQuery plugin inside Vue
body: <p>I'm building a web application inside VueJS but I encounter a problem. I want to use a jQuery extension (cropit to be specific) but I don't know how to instantiate/require/import it the right way without getting errors.</p>
  
  <p>I'm using de official CLI tool and de webpack template for my App.</p>
  
  <p>I included jQuery like this in my main.js file:</p>
  
  <pre><code>import jQuery from 'jQuery'
  window.jQuery = jQuery
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Now I'm building an image editor component where I want to instantiate crept like this: </p>
  
  <pre><code>export default {
    ready () {
      $(document).ready(function ($) {
        $('#image-cropper-wrapper-element').cropit({ /* options */ })
      })
    },
   }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>But I keep getting errors...Now my question is how to properly instantiate jQuery and plugins via NPM/Webpack/Vue?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks in advance!</p>
