Users will be better of using `nodenext` or `bundler` if necessary.\n\nIn TypeScript 6.0, `--moduleResolution classic` will be deprecated. Users enabling it will get an error message that can only be suppressed via `--ignoreDeprecations`.\n\nIn 7.0, we are thinking the default will be `bundler` unless there is an appropriate `moduleResolution` target that matches a given `--module` target.\n\nSee more on deprecations/changes for 6.0/7.0 in #54500.","author":{"url":"https://github.com/DanielRosenwasser","@type":"Person","name":"DanielRosenwasser"},"datePublished":"2025-08-05T17:24:34.000Z","interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"https://schema.org/CommentAction","userInteractionCount":7},"url":"https://github.com/62206/TypeScript/issues/62206"}
