title: Using mutationobservers to detect changes in the results of a fetch request
body: <p>I'm working on a narrow cast that displays an amount of tickets (an integer with the total added up to eachother) from a 3rd party API. I want to display a notification when this amount increases. I've read about mutationobservers, and that they are good for doing similar tasks like when something gets added or deleted.</p>
  
  <p>The app has a Vue frontend, and a Laravel backend which does the requesting/authenticating. The index blade loads in a Vue component which contains the other components (and distributes the data from the API to child components). </p>
  
  <p>I'm not quite sure wether mutationobservers are good for this specific job, though. Googling really didn't give me great alternatives.</p>
  
  <p>In conclusion, I want to know if mutationobservers are the right tools for this task and what property would work. Better suited alternatives are also welcome.</p>
