+> disallow unnecessary `<template>`
+
+- :gear: This rule is included in `"plugin:vue/vue3-recommended"` and `"plugin:vue/recommended"`.
+
+## :book: Rule Details
+
+This rule aims to eliminate unnecessary and potentially confusing `<template>`.  
+In Vue.js 2.x, the `<template>` elements that have no specific directives have no effect.  
+In Vue.js 3.x, the `<template>` elements that have no specific directives render the `<template>` elements as is, but in most cases this may not be what you intended.
+
+<eslint-code-block :rules="{'vue/no-lone-template': ['error']}">
+
+```vue
+<template>
+  <!-- ✓ GOOD -->
+  <template v-if="foo">...</template>
+  <template v-else-if="bar">...</template>
+  <template v-else>...</template>
+  <template v-for="e in list">...</template>
+  <template v-slot>...</template>
+
+  <!-- ✗ BAD -->
+  <template>...</template>
+  <template/>
+</template>
+```
+
+</eslint-code-block>
+
+## :wrench: Options
+
+```json
+{
+  "vue/no-lone-template": ["error", {
+    "ignoreAccessible": false
+  }]
+}
+```
+
+- `ignoreAccessible` ... If `true`, ignore accessible `<template>` elements. default `false`.  
+  Note: this option is useless if you are using Vue.js 2.x.
+
+### `"ignoreAccessible": true`
+
+<eslint-code-block :rules="{'vue/no-lone-template': ['error', { 'ignoreAccessible': true }]}">
+
+```vue
+<template>
+  <!-- ✓ GOOD -->
+  <template ref="foo">...</template>
+  <template id="bar">...</template>
+
+  <!-- ✗ BAD -->
+  <template class="baz">...</template>
+</template>
+```
+
+</eslint-code-block>
+
+## :mute: When Not To Use It
+
+If you are using Vue.js 3.x and want to define the `<template>` element intentionally, you will have to turn this rule off or use `"ignoreAccessible"` option.
