Depends on #517Why the change?
ts-node is currently in a bit questionable shape. It barely works with newer versions od Node.js, long-standing bugs are not being addressed, TypeScript ESM simply does not work.
I myself was affected by ts-node simply hanging on start during
yarn buildcommand on Windows.Why tsx?
While my personal favorite ts-node alternative is tsimp, tsx has seen much higher adoption so far, so I believe it's easier for others to accept it. It also uses esbuild under the hood, which we happen to already use, which results in a considerable drop of number of dependencies.
