45-50: Documentation update aligns with ES module initialization objective.The command change at line 46 correctly implements the PR objective by using
npm init --init-type=module -y, which sets"type": "module"in the generatedpackage.json. This addresses the VS Code ESM compatibility issue mentioned in the PR description.Optional enhancement: Consider updating the description at line 50 to be more explicit about the ES module setup:
-This creates a `package.json` with an initial setup for a Node.js app. +This creates a `package.json` with ES module support for a modern Node.js app (via `"type": "module"`).This clarification would help readers understand why the flag is present and what it accomplishes.

41-54: Consider adding context about why these flags are necessary.While the command changes are correct, users following this guide may benefit from a brief explanation of why these flags are being added. Consider adding a sentence or inline comment explaining that these options resolve VS Code type checking issues with ES modules and Node.js types.
Optional clarification example:
Next, initialize TypeScript: ```terminal copy npx tsc --init --types=node
+This configures TypeScript to properly recognize Node.js types, which helps avoid VS Code type checking errors when using ES modules.
