A Vue 2 component collection for Stripe.js

A Vue 2 wrapper around Stripe Elements that's been officially deprecated since Vue 2 hit EOL at end of 2023. The maintainer points you to their Vue 3 successor (vue-stripe-js) instead. Nothing to see here unless you're stuck on a Vue 2 codebase that can't migrate.

- The scoped slot design for passing elements/instance to children is actually clean — avoids prop drilling without reaching for provide/inject.

- Element options are reactive, so you can update Stripe element state (e.g. postal code) through normal Vue data without calling imperative Stripe methods.

- Maintainer handled deprecation responsibly: clear README banner, active redirect to the Vue 3 package, no attempt to keep a dead thing limping along.

- It's deprecated. Vue 2 is EOL. You should not start a new project with this — full stop.

- Only 523 stars and the last real work predates the deprecation notice; the community has moved on and there will be no bug fixes.

- No TypeScript support, which matters for any serious Stripe integration where you want type-checked payment intent shapes and error handling.

- Test coverage is thin (one spec file for the helper functions); the component behavior itself has no meaningful test suite, so you're flying blind if you fork it.
