I guess since this at the top of HN, I'll just plug that we (the TypeScript team) are looking for broader feedback of the native previews before our stable release, whether that's:

- through builds (https://www.npmjs.com/package/@typescript/native-preview), or

- through the editor extension (https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=TypeScri...)

We're using it pretty extensively at my team in the huge front-end monorepo the company we work for has via the extension, just purely for better IDE perf. It's been excellent so far, though it does still choke on the sheer scale of said monorepo sometimes

We've been using tsgo for a few months in our team and it just works (10x faster). We bumped into some small differences in behavior with tsc but it was always because we were doing something weird in our code, and it was easy to fix.

Mad props to the team, it's an amazing achievement

We're using tsgo only on the command line btw, we're not using the vscode plugin yet

Can you post links to where exactly one should provide feedback for each release?

We have several extremely heavy projects (mostly in the functional programming/effect space where you easily get union explosion) that make working even on an M3 max with 8gb per process limit impossible and we get OOM fast (besides compilation times).

Been using experimental tsgo in VSCode for several weeks and it's night and day, can't wait enough for TS7 to ship everywhere. Awesome job, guys!

Any idea how close TS7 is?
