Suggestion: Provide configs for old Node.js version

munierujp commented 3 years ago

Recommended value of lib and target depends on the Node.js version.

cf. https://github.com/microsoft/TypeScript/wiki/Node-Target-Mapping

Could you provide configs for the old Node.js version to avoid compile errors?

Example

My current tsconfig.json for Node 12.x

{
  "extends": "tsconfigs/nodejs-executable",
  "compilerOptions": {
    "target": "ES2019",
    "lib": [
      "ES2019"
    ]
  }
}

If tsconfigs is providing configs for old Node.js version...:

{
  "extends": "tsconfigs/nodejs-v12-executable"
}

Thank you.

Thank you for using tsconfigs, @munierujp.

That would be too much API surface. The scope of this package is as it is meant to be. This suggested variation is too specific to be included in this package. You do know that you can override any property, right?

How many times have you overridden this particular property in this particular way that it would motivate you to suggest this here?
