useFetch vs useAsyncData vs $fetch

In this video, we break down how $fetch, useFetch, and useAsyncData differ. $fetch is great for responding to user interactions while useAsyncData and useFetch are good for fetching data to display on page load. useAsyncData and useFetch de-duplicate requests by forwarding the data fetched on the server to the client so that the client doesn’t have to make the request again. Finally, useAsyncData is great for working with 3rd party JavaScript clients or SDKs.
