TypeScript 7.0 RC (devblogs.microsoft.com)

This sounds really great. As a Go developer I'm also really looking forward to their Go port of the filesystem watcher package — I agree that the existing packages don't fully allow to do a reliable recursive directory watch and it would be great to have something where you don't rely on C dependencies just for this thing.

You plan to contribute to the TypeScript project?

No, in fact I do not use TS at all :).

However they did mention this in the article, and hopefully that also means they'll make the package accessible to others too:

> The watcher is a self-contained package that has allowed us to keep a clean separation of concerns between what we care to watch and why.
