In TypeScript project, need to declare typedefs for .md file as you need.

declare module '*.md' {
  // "unknown" would be more detailed depends on how you structure frontmatter
  const attributes: Record<string, unknown>; 

  // When "Mode.TOC" is requested
  const toc: { level: string, content: string }[];

  // When "Mode.HTML" is requested
  const html: string;

  // When "Mode.React" is requested. VFC could take a generic like React.VFC<{ MyComponent: TypeOfMyComponent }>
  import React from 'react'
  const ReactComponent: React.VFC;
  
  // When "Mode.Vue" is requested
  import { ComponentOptions, Component } from 'vue';
  const VueComponent: ComponentOptions;
  const VueComponentWith: (components: Record<string, Component>) => ComponentOptions;

  // Modify below per your usage
  export { attributes, toc, html, ReactComponent, VueComponent, VueComponentWith };
