typescript with esm does not work with certain tsconfig.json values #28696
Description
Current behavior
Cypress is unable to run typescript/esm projects when certain values are set in the tsconfig.json. This tsconfig.json does not work with ESM when setting type: "module" in the package.json.
{
"compilerOptions": {
"target": "es5",
"lib": ["dom", "dom.iterable", "esnext"],
"allowJs": true,
"skipLibCheck": true,
"strict": true,
"forceConsistentCasingInFileNames": true,
"noEmit": true,
"esModuleInterop": true,
"module": "es6",
"moduleResolution": "node",
"resolveJsonModule": true,
"isolatedModules": true,
"jsx": "preserve",
"incremental": true,
"plugins": [{ "name": "next" }],
"paths": { "@/*": ["./*"] }
},
"include": ["next-env.d.ts", "**/*.ts", "**/*.tsx", ".next/types/**/*.ts"],
"exclude": ["node_modules"]
}
To workaround this issue, either comment out allowJs or bump the target to ES6 or greater
Desired behavior
Cypress should be able to run ESM with typescript regardless of the values in my tsconfig.json
