• Discussed previously
  • Design Meeting Notes, 4/30/2024 #58417
• Example tsconfig.json.
  • tsc --init update 2024 #58420 (comment)
  • "rootDir": "src"
    • Automatically sets include...right?
      • Probably not.
  • "target": "es2022"
    • Feels modern enough.
    • Maybe just do esnext
  • "lib": ["dom", "esnext"]
    • Need all the other dom.* libraries like dom.iterable.
    • Or just use "esnext.full"
  • "module": "nodenext"
    • But bundler?
  • "skipLibCheck": true
    • Disagreement about whether this is best practice, or even necessary for most projects.
• Node vs. browser?
