What are @tsconfig/node18's main functionalities?

Base Configuration

ES Module Support

The configuration supports ES modules, which are natively supported in Node.js 18. This allows you to use modern JavaScript module syntax in your TypeScript projects.

{"compilerOptions":{"module":"ESNext","target":"ES2021"}}

Strict Type-Checking

The configuration enables strict type-checking options, which helps catch common errors and improve code quality by enforcing stricter type rules.
