Originally posted by stefanprobst November 14, 2021 hi @davidbonnet, what do you think about allowing to (optionally) skip unknown node types? for example the typescript nodes created by @typescript-eslint/typescript-estree. i know very little about asts, but maybe like this small change? thanks!

The suggested change is incomplete though. IMHO, it would be more practical to transform the AST using a tool like astravel which would remove unknown nodes prior rendering them to actual code.
