Will nodeJs ever have out of the box typescript support?

• proposal-type-annotations

  60 3,441 0.0 JavaScript

  ECMAScript proposal for type syntax that is erased - Stage 1

  

  Support for types in JavaScript itself - There is an official proposal for this with backing. There seems to be a significant desire for this, particular in the enterprise. Microsoft have designed TypeScript in such a way that it can eventually become native JavaScript and are backing that approach.

• node

  271 95,864 9.9 JavaScript

  Node.js JavaScript runtime :sparkles::turtle::rocket::sparkles:

  

  Support TypeScript directly - There are numerous issues about this, but the node project overall doesn't seem interested (as it's so easy to just use tsc, node-tsc, or tsx instead - so a fair bit of work for very little gain).

• Appwrite
