v8.0.0

8.0.0 (2024-04-19)

⚠ BREAKING CHANGES

• TypeScript code now compiles to
  ES2020. This breaks compatibility with obsolete
  versions of Node and obsolete browsers. If you
  need to support these older systems either
  override compilerOptions.target or use Babel
  to compile down to older ES syntax.
• stripInternal: The allowSyntheticDefaultImports
  option is no longer set. This option is not
  appropriate for most projects. It should only be
  set for projects that are transpiled using Babel
  (or similar). See
  https://www.typescriptlang.org/tsconfig#allowSyntheticDefaultImports
• stripInternal: The stripInternal option is no
  longer set, meaning TypeScript will no longer
  exclude type declarations for code marked
  @internal. This option was unsafe because
  TypeScript does not check that the resulting
  declarations are valid. Projects that relied on
  this option should consider using api-extractor
  (https://api-extractor.com/) instead, or override
  this option to true in their tsconfig.
• types: Ambient type declarations are no
  longer included in the compilation by default
  (tsconfig specifies the option "types": []).
  Consuming projects that require ambient types
  should list them explicitly in their tsconfig.
  For example, projects that target node should
  add a dependency on @types/node and specify
  {"compilerOptions": {"types": ["node"]}}.
• commonjs: The commonjs, dom-commonjs, and
  webworker-commonjs configurations are obsolete
  and have been removed. Instead of commonjs, use
  the top level configuration (replace
  "@softwareventures/tsconfig/commonjs" with
  "@softwareventures/tsconfig"). Instead of
  dom-commonjs, use the dom configuration (replace
  "@softwareventures/tsconfig/dom-commonjs" with
  "@softwareventures/tsconfig/dom"). Instead of
  webworker-commonjs, use the webworker
  configuration (replace
  "@softwareventures/tsconfig/webworker-commonjs"
  with "@softwareventures/tsconfig/webworker").
  The CommonJS-specific configurations are obsolete
  now since the corresponding base configurations
  use "Node16" module resolution and compile to
  "Node16" modules. This is equivalent to compiling
  to CommonJS modules and following CommonJS
  resolution rules when that is what node would
  expect, and compiling to ES Modules and following
  ES Module resolution rules when that is what node
  would expect.
• allowUnusedLabels: Unused labels will now raise a
  compiler error. This usually indicates a broken
  attempt to write an object literal.
  See https://www.typescriptlang.org/tsconfig#allowUnusedLabels
• allowUnreachableCode: Provably unreachable code will
  now raise a compiler error. See
  https://www.typescriptlang.org/tsconfig#allowUnreachableCode
• deps: tsconfig now has a peer
  dependency on typescript v5.2.2 or later.
  Consuming projects should upgrade typescript to
  at least that version.
