The TypeScript 5.0 beta announcement adds const type parameters to the language. You can now add the const modifier on a type parameter of a function, method, or class like this:
The type of names in the above example is readonly ["Alice", "Bob", "Eve"]. Marking the type parameter as const behaves as if you had written as const at every use instead. The above code is equivalent to the following TypeScript, which was the only option before TypeScript 5.0:
Make parsing generic async arrow functions more strict in .tsx files
Previously esbuild's TypeScript parser incorrectly accepted the following code as valid:
let fn = async <T> () => {};
The official TypeScript parser rejects this code because it thinks it's the identifier async followed by a JSX element starting with <T>. So with this release, esbuild will now reject this syntax in .tsx files too. You'll now have to add a comma after the type parameter to get generic arrow functions like this to parse in .tsx files:
let fn = async <T,> () => {};
Allow the in and out type parameter modifiers on class expressions
TypeScript 4.7 added the in and out modifiers on the type parameters of classes, interfaces, and type aliases. However, while TypeScript supported them on both class expressions and class statements, previously esbuild only supported them on class statements due to an oversight. This release now allows these modifiers on class expressions too:
declare let Foo: any;
Foo = class <in T> { };
Foo = class <out T> { };
This changelog documents all esbuild versions published in the year 2022 (versions 0.14.11 through 0.16.12).

Loader defaults to js for extensionless files (#2776)
Certain packages contain files without an extension. For example, the yargs package contains the file yargs/yargs which has no extension. Node, Webpack, and Parcel can all understand code that imports yargs/yargs because they assume that the file is JavaScript. However, esbuild was previously unable to understand this code because it relies on the file extension to tell it how to interpret the file. With this release, esbuild will now assume files without an extension are JavaScript files. This can be customized by setting the loader for "" (the empty string, representing files without an extension) to another loader. For example, if you want files without an extension to be treated as CSS instead, you can do that like this:
In addition, the "type" field in package.json files now only applies to files with an explicit .js, .jsx, .ts, or .tsx extension. Previously it was incorrectly applied by esbuild to all files that had an extension other than .mjs, .mts, .cjs, or .cts including extensionless files. So for example an extensionless file in a "type": "module" package is now treated as CommonJS instead of ESM.
0.16.11
Avoid a syntax error in the presence of direct eval (#2761)
The behavior of nested function declarations in JavaScript depends on whether the code is run in strict mode or not. It would be problematic if esbuild preserved nested function declarations in its output because then the behavior would depend on whether the output was run in strict mode or not instead of respecting the strict mode behavior of the original source code. To avoid this, esbuild transforms nested function declarations to preserve the intended behavior of the original source code regardless of whether the output is run in strict mode or not:
// Original code
if (true) {
function foo() {}
console.log(!!foo)
foo = null
console.log(!!foo)
}
