Btw, you probably already know this, but if you don't. The later versions of Node can run typescript natively. By "run", I mean, it can run a subset of the language, if your project indirectly or indirectly references a file that has "decorators" or something like that, then you'll need to use another compiler.

ts-node or tsx are runners that I use typically if I just want to "run" something. They're basically zero config runners and I can debug with them with VS Code.

Yeah, I’ve read about the development of the ability to run TS natively in Node. It sounds really promising!

I’m not familiar with ts-node though. I’ll have to check that out.
