Warn when the first heading has an unexpected rank.
Parameters
options (Options, default: 1) — configuration
Returns
Transform (Transformer from unified).
Options
Configuration (TypeScript type).

Recommendation
In most cases you’d want to first heading in a markdown document to start at rank 1. In some cases a different rank makes more sense, such as when building a blog and generating the primary heading from frontmatter metadata, in which case a value of 2 can be defined here or the rule can be turned off.

Compatibility
Projects maintained by the unified collective are compatible with maintained versions of Node.js.
When we cut a new major release, we drop support for unmaintained versions of Node. This means we try to keep the current release line, remark-lint-first-heading-level@4, compatible with Node.js 16.
