-#### Compiler macros such as `defineProps` and `defineEmits` are warned by `no-undef` rule
-
-You need to define [global variables](https://eslint.org/docs/user-guide/configuring/language-options#using-configuration-files-1) in your ESLint configuration file.  
-If you don't want to define global variables, use `import { defineProps, defineEmits } from 'vue'`.
-
-Example **.eslintrc.js**:
-
-```js
-module.exports = {
-  globals: {
-    defineProps: "readonly",
-    defineEmits: "readonly",
-    defineExpose: "readonly",
-    withDefaults: "readonly"
-  }
-}
-```
-
-See also [ESLint - Specifying Globals > Using configuration files](https://eslint.org/docs/user-guide/configuring/language-options#using-configuration-files-1).

 #### Parsing error with Top Level `await`
