+- `defineConfigWithVueTs`, a utility function whose type signature is the same as the [`config` function from `typescript-eslint`](https://typescript-eslint.io/packages/typescript-eslint#config), but will modify the given config to work with Vue.js + TypeScript.

 - a Vue-specific config factory: `configureVueProject({ scriptLangs, rootDir })`. More info below.
