Unsupported engine for Node v16?

[HadriMX]

When I install this package I get the following message:

npm WARN EBADENGINE Unsupported engine {
npm WARN EBADENGINE   package: 'linq-to-typescript@10.0.0',
npm WARN EBADENGINE   required: { node: '>=17' },
npm WARN EBADENGINE   current: { node: 'v16.13.2', npm: '8.1.2' }
npm WARN EBADENGINE }

I can't update to Node v17 so I was wondering whether it's really a problem or I can just ignore it?

Thank you for your work, btw :)

I think it should still work with 16.

@arogozine It is still working but I prefer not to having such types of errors? Is there a reason why dev dependencies require on v17 instead of LTS version v16?

You can use the previous until Node 18 comes out. I think 18 will be LTS.

Node 16 doesn't support assert { type: "json" } whereas Node 17 doesn't import JSON without it. So I went with the newer behavior for the post build script.

Its also in preparation to provide only Native ES Modules.
