Description
TypeScript 7 (GA July 2026) ships a native Go-based compiler with 8–12× faster builds, shared-memory multithreading, and --checkers N for configurable parallelization. We should:
- Bump the repo's
engines constraint to accept TypeScript 7
- Update CI to run tests against TS 7 by default
- Document the multi-version compatibility strategy in the README and the web app
Why
- TypeScript 7 is now GA and is the recommended version for new projects
- The 10× speed improvement makes deep type-checking in CI practically free
- Adopting TS 7 early positions the library as modern and fast-to-test
Acceptance criteria
Risks
- Low. TS 7 has no breaking changes for the type system — existing tests should pass unchanged.
