  Internals

  We have changed the implementation of Vue.nextTick to fix a few bugs (related to #6566, #6690). The change involves using a macro task instead of a micro task to defer DOM updates when inside a DOM event handler attached via v-on. This means any Vue updates triggered by state changes inside v-on handlers will be now deferred using a macro task. This may lead to changes in behavior when dealing with native DOM events.

  For more details regarding micro/macro tasks, see this blog post.

  For the new implementation, see source code for nextTick.
