type/no-redundant-type-constituents

Disallow members of unions and intersections that do nothing or override type information.

Applies to: Type information in Vue SFC scripts and templates, for the constructs shown below.

This rule reads type information from your TypeScript project (tsconfig.json), so the configuration sets typeAware: true. typeAware does not turn on opt-in rules by itself.

Bad

unknown already covers string, so the string constituent does not narrow the union.

<script setup lang="ts">
type Redundant = unknown | string;
</script>

Good

string and number are both useful constituents of the union.

<script setup lang="ts">
type Redundant = string | number;
</script>

Configuration (Vite+)

import { defineConfig } from "@vizejs/vite-plugin/vite-plus";

export default defineConfig({}).withVue({
  linter: {
    "preset": "incremental",
    "rules": {
      "type/no-redundant-type-constituents": "warn"
    },
    "typeAware": true
  },
});

Then run vp run lint.
