<h1>Example: v-show vs. v-if</h1>

<div id="app">
  <p>Set the 'showDiv' data property to 'false', and run the code again. Right click this green p element, choose 'Inspect' or 'Inspect element' and you can see that the div element with v-show still exist, it is only the CSS display property that is set to 'none', and the div with v-if is destroyed.</p>
  <div v-show="showDiv">Div tag with v-show</div>
  <div v-if="showDiv">Div tag with v-if</div>
</div>
