The TypeScript team just announced TS v3, with new features for monorepo setups much like the Nest core. I'm happy to create a pull request that supports TypeScript v3 and new build features and codependency, I just wanted to open an issue first and gauge Kamil and community support.

Environment

Nest version: 5

Just tell me how we can help, a plan ? i'm 100% in 😺

TS 3.0 is not stable yet. Anyway, we need to update codebase once it hit the final version.

[wbhob]

yeah, i openned this to suggest starting on it now, so when stable drops, it can be merged in. api shouldn’t change between rc and stable.

Now that TS 3.0 is out, what is the current status of this task?

[xeoneux]

Now that TS supports project references, would it be better to use lerna packages instead of separate repositories for nest dependencies?

Has anyone tried to build & run the latest NestJS (5.2.x) with TypeScript 3.0.x ?

[myflowpl]

@anodynos Just updated my NestJS 5.2.2 project to TypeScript 3.0.3 and it's working with no problems, all tests passes without changing a line of code
I'm using only the stuff from the NestJS Docs, don't write any advanced TypeScript code my self.
If so, go ahead and try it :)
