Anthony Fu's opinionated tooling and conventions for JavaScript/TypeScript projects. Use when setting up new projects, configuring ESLint/Prettier alternatives, monorepos, library publishing, or when the user mentions Anthony Fu's preferences.
Vite build tool configuration, plugin API, SSR, and Vite 8 Rolldown migration. Use when working with Vite projects, vite.config.ts, Vite plugins, or building libraries/SSR apps with Vite.
VitePress static site generator powered by Vite and Vue. Use when building documentation sites, configuring themes, or writing Markdown with Vue components.
MUST be used for Vue.js tasks. Strongly recommends Composition API with `<script setup>` and TypeScript as the standard approach. Covers Vue 3, SSR, Volar, vue-tsc. Load for any Vue, .vue files, Vue Router, Pinia, or Vite with Vue work. ALWAYS use Composition API unless the project explicitly requires Options API.
Vue Router 4 patterns, navigation guards, route params, and route-component lifecycle interactions.
Vue 3 Composition API, script setup macros, reactivity system, and built-in components. Use when writing Vue SFCs, defineProps/defineEmits/defineModel, watchers, or using Transition/Teleport/Suspense/KeepAlive.
