…stall guide The TypeScript setup section provides a tsconfig.json using "module": "nodenext" and demonstrates ESM import syntax in src/app.ts, but doesn't mention that package.json also needs "type": "module" set. Without it, TypeScript treats .ts files as CommonJS by default and throws ECMAScript imports and exports cannot be written in a CommonJS file under 'verbatimModuleSyntax'. (ts1295) when following the guide as written. This adds the missing step so the example works out of the box. Signed-off-by: Jameel Ahmad <jameelahmad221b@gmail.com>
