 ```javascript

-import VueComponentDebug from 'vue-component-debug'
-import App from './App.vue'

-Comments will only be added in development mode.
+By default, comments will always be outputted while in development mode and removed in production mode. However, you're welcome to override this behavior by passing an `enabled` option to the plugin:
