Apparently the only way to solve this is by using a proxy on the localhost devserver.

The "solution" is in vue.config.js adding:

devServer: {
    proxy: {
      '/woocommerce': {
        target: 'https://woocommercewebsite.com/',
        changeOrigin: true,
        pathRewrite: {
          '^/woocommerce': ''
        }
      }
    },
...

And in axios query https://localhost:8080/woocommerce/ which will route the request to the external server.

Why can I query other REST APIs on the internet from the same localhost app but not Woocommerce? Maybe someone can explain this.
