## Usage
```
Note that the version number (`@3` or `@2`) MUST NOT be omitted, otherwise `npm` may resolve to a cached and outdated version of the package.
+
+## Difference from Vue CLI
+
+- Vue CLI is based on webpack, while `create-vue` is based on [Vite](https://vitejs.dev/). Vite supports most of the configured conventions found in Vue CLI projects out of the box, and provides a significantly better development experience due to its extremely fast startup and hot-module replacement speed. Learn more about why we recommend Vite over webpack [here](https://vitejs.dev/guide/why.html).
+
+- Unlike Vue CLI, `create-vue` itself is just a scaffolding tool: it creates a pre-configured project base on the features you choose, and delegates the rest to Vite. Projects scaffolded this way can directly leverage the [Vite plugin ecosystem](https://vitejs.dev/plugins/) which is Rollup-compatible.
