Why was I tagged?

@privatenumber I don't know if you know about tsconfck, I'm currently using get-tsconfig in several projects, but it seems it's missing some features different from tsconfck, would they be supported?

[privatenumber]

missing some features different

What are they? And why don't you open a discussion thread in get-tsconfig with a clear question instead of tagging me on multiple issues with no question?

[JounQin]

What are they?

Take references for example.

resolve "references" of solution-style tsconfig

And why don't you open a discussion thread in get-tsconfig with a clear question instead of tagging me on multiple issues with no question?

I'm sorry if I was bothering you. I was just opening the two issue in case I could forget these tasks and tagging you in case you may want to take a look at tsconfck.

[privatenumber]

Feel free to submit feature requests in get-tsconfig. However, please make ensure that your suggestions are well-detailed and with context. Your thorough input will be appreciated.

And in the future, please initiate constructive discussions in the relevant repositories. Others may have similar questions, and it's more discoverable in the appropriate places. Thanks!

@JounQin Since tsconfck claims to be faster and smaller, there is no reason that why we should not replace the get-tsconfig.

In fact, I am going to replace get-tsconfig w/ tsconfck in the rollup-plugin-swc3.

@SukkaW Thanks for your input, but tsconfck breaks my workflow currently described at https://github.com/dominikg/tsconfck/issues/149. And I don't know if jsconfig.json is supported, see also https://github.com/dominikg/tsconfck/issues/14.

jsconfig.json is supported in tsconfck v3, but you need to explicitly enable it with an option, there is no automatic/hybrid mode where it looks for tsconfig.json or jsconfig.json simultaneously https://github.com/dominikg/tsconfck/pull/132

tsconfck is also used by vite, and there have been previous discussions about making it available to vite plugins to avoid multiple plugins all using it with separate caches. We should start a discussion on vite discord about that maybe?

@dominikg Sorry I'm not a native English speaker, I don't quite understand what do you want to discuss about? Automatically seeking jsconfig.json when tsconfig.json not found or not specific passed as option.

@SukkaW Thanks for your input, but tsconfck breaks my workflow currently described at dominikg/tsconfck#149. And I don't know if jsconfig.json is supported, see also dominikg/tsconfck#14.

@SukkaW In case that my questions seem already been fixed after https://github.com/dominikg/tsconfck/releases/tag/tsconfck%403.0.1, do you want to raise to PR to replace get-tsconfig w/ tsconfck, or I'll do it when I'm free.
