Can it cover the ‘correct’ way to remove vue-cli-plugins?
We have ‘add’ and ‘invoke’ commands but I can’t see any remove commands anywhere, or in the UI. And the generators don’t seem to have this option either (based on the ones I’ve seen so far).
For now it seems we have to look at old git commits, remove lines from package.json, config files, and plugin .js files. And then npm uninstall from local.

As an aside I think the way some generators actually change and replace core .vue and core config files will not be a sustainable practice even though it seems to be standard now. ‘Pluggable’ means they can be unplugged too right? Food for thought I hope.

@km333 This is unrelated to this issue, please open another one.

That is an amzing idea, is it something that you would like to do? Something that you wish a Pull Request in the docs for?
Because I would be interrested in both.

I believe you might want to add testing to this list:
How to test your plugin & what to test your plugin for.
The tools of the trade

• yarn worspaces + lerna
• cli-test-utils
• pupettier and execa

Thanks for your answers
