Description
Node v16 is EOL, and --module node16
is an awkward target because it doesn't support import attributes, but requires import assertions to import JSON. With #60534, nodenext
will advance to support require(esm)
, so we will want to have a module target that represents Node.js beore require(esm)
but after import attributes.
--module node18
will be identical to 5.7's nodenext
(except perhaps for the implied --target
), and --module node16
will be deprecated in TypeScript 6.0.
