- [TypeScript Vue Plugin](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=Vue.vscode-typescript-vue-plugin) is also needed to get type support for `*.vue` imports in TS files.

- [WebStorm](https://www.jetbrains.com/webstorm/) also provides out-of-the-box support for both TypeScript and Vue. Other JetBrains IDEs support them too, either out of the box or via [a free plugin](https://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/9442-vue-js). As of version 2023.2, WebStorm and the Vue Plugin come with built-in support for the Vue Language Server. You can set the Vue service to use Volar integration on all TypeScript versions, under Settings > Languages & Frameworks > TypeScript > Vue. By default, Volar will be used for TypeScript versions 5.0 and higher.

### Volar Takeover Mode {#volar-takeover-mode}

> This section only applies for VSCode + Volar.
To get Vue SFCs and TypeScript working together, Volar creates a separate TS language service instance patched with Vue-specific support, and uses it in Vue SFCs. At the same time, plain TS files are still handled by VSCode's built-in TS language service, which is why we need [TypeScript Vue Plugin](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=Vue.vscode-typescript-vue-plugin) to support Vue SFC imports in TS files. This default setup works, but for each project we are running two TS language service instances: one from Volar, one from VSCode's built-in service. This is a bit inefficient and can lead to performance issues in large projects.

Volar provides a feature called "Takeover Mode" to improve performance. In takeover mode, Volar provides support for both Vue and TS files using a single TS language service instance.

To enable Takeover Mode, you need to disable VSCode's built-in TS language service in **your project's workspace only** by following these steps:

1. In your project workspace, bring up the command palette with `Ctrl + Shift + P` (macOS: `Cmd + Shift + P`).
2. Type `built` and select "Extensions: Show Built-in Extensions".
3. Type `typescript` in the extension search box (do not remove `@builtin` prefix).
4. Click the little gear icon of "TypeScript and JavaScript Language Features", and select "Disable (Workspace)".
5. Reload the workspace. Takeover mode will be enabled when you open a Vue or TS file.

### Note on Vue CLI and `ts-loader` {#note-on-vue-cli-and-ts-loader}

In webpack-based setups such as Vue CLI, it is common to perform type checking as part of the module transform pipeline, for example with `ts-loader`. This, however, isn't a clean solution because the type system needs knowledge of the entire module graph to perform type checks. Individual module's transform step simply is not the right place for the task. It leads to the following problems:
