tsconfig

A collection of tsconfig.json files:

• node-22: Node.js v22 (LTS)

• node-24: Node.js v24

• node-ts: Run TypeScript directly in Node.js

  Uses the compiler option erasableSyntaxOnly to constrain the syntax of .ts files. This makes them executable directly in Node.js without transpilation using its type stripping feature.

• pedantic: Use the strictest type-checking mode

  Enables all compiler options which increase the strictness of the type-checking done by Typescript. Additionally, options improving the consistency of modules/import are also enabled.

Installation & Usage

Run one of the following, depending on your package manager:

npm install --save-dev @jessestricker/tsconfig
pnpm add --save-dev @jessestricker/tsconfig

Then, use one (or more) of the provided base configurations for the extends options in your tsconfig.json file, for example:

{
  "extends": [
    "@jessestricker/tsconfig/pedantic.json",
    "@jessestricker/tsconfig/node-24.json",
  ],
  // ...
}

[!IMPORTANT] The order in the extends property is important, as later entries override compiler options from earlier entries.

In particular, make sure that pedantic comes before any of the node-... configs.
