Description

Created a new Angular 16 project. Immediately see this error

Argument for '--target' option must be: 'es3', 'es5', 'es6', 'es2015', 'es2016', 'es2017', 'es2018', 'es2019', 'es2020', 'es2021', 'esnext'

Have "typescript": "~5.1.3" installed. Angular cli 16.1.0

I think this error is also contributing to another problem I'm seeing with @input decorators too

Minimal Reproduction

ng new MyApplication

This appears to be a configuration issue with the IDE. Please ensure that the vscode is configured to use the workspace version of TypeScript.
For additional information, please see https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/typescript/typescript-compiling#_using-the-workspace-version-of-typescript

You can also verify that this is an IDE configuration issue by attempting an ng build for the project. If that succeeds then it is IDE related.

Yep, that was the issue. Angular now uses a version of Typescript greater than VS Code. Switching to the workspace's version has it working now.
