Does the string approach work in both versions? If so let's just document that one 👍

Both options definitely work in both versions of Prettier (I tested this myself before release and again just now): https://github.com/prettier/prettier/blob/79d8a3983842d1d8a077f177ed8b983c1c596088/src/main/plugins/load-plugin.js#L28-L34

The require version is needed when using Prettier v2 + pnpm or Yarn PnP otherwise a string suffices.

I'm using Nuxt, where using 'require' gives me a Prettier config error. Could be my setup thou but after trying to debug, changing it to a string import is the only thing that solved it.

@lirobinxc what kind of setup are you using with Nuxt and Prettier? (Do you have a repro? I'd love to take a look). I just did a barebones install with a prettier config file and it works. But in this case Nuxt wouldn't really be involved anywhere. They just happen to be installed in the same project.

I got an error from the prettier vscode plugin when using the require version, but everything worked when I ran it using npx prettier in the CLI. Removing the require and using the string instead seems to work for both now...

Going to document just the string approach for now and wait for someone to find a situation where that breaks 🙃 Thanks!
