JS/TS features crashing

Type: Bug

Not really sure what's going on but yesterday the TS support in VSCode stopped working for my project.

Thanks for creating this issue! It looks like you may be using an old version of VS Code, the latest stable release is 1.85.0. Please try upgrading to the latest version and checking whether this issue remains.

Happy Coding!

Updating the VSC version did not work.

It is perpetually stuck trying to init.

And eventually shows it's crashed more than 5 times in 5 minutes via a notification within VSC.

When I run tsc in my project, I get an error like

<--- JS stacktrace --->

FATAL ERROR: Reached heap limit Allocation failed - JavaScript heap out of memory

So this might be an issue I have to find out with typescript more generally that's causing an issue.

This was a me-problem. I am working on an application that processes videos. Some of those files are Transport Segment (.ts) files. I recently synced a folder within my docker container with some of these video files to my host machine for troubleshooting. These path for these .ts video files were not excluded in the tsconfig.json for the project, so that caused the typescript build to fail, as well as prevented this VSC extension from starting up. 🤦

After excluding that folder with the .ts video files, things are working again. Closing this.
