Hello there Super-Nim 👋

Thank you for opening your very first issue in this project.

We will try to get back to you as soon as we can.👀

This is somewhat intended (You can't serialize it as a JSON). Serialize it as lossy number or as string, and type that.

Ok, that makes sense. The typeError is from an imported package that uses bigint in some of its custom types, is there a way to configure this in tsoa.json?

I have the same issue when trying to reuse the types generated by Prisma ORM.
