Description

@ericfitz

Summary

TypeScript 6.0.2 is now available. We are currently on 5.9.3. This is a major version bump that requires ecosystem compatibility validation before upgrading.

Current State

Prerequisites

  • Confirm Angular 21.x officially supports TypeScript 6
  • Confirm @angular/compiler-cli compatibility with TS 6
  • Check eslint-typescript / angular-eslint compatibility
  • Review TS 6 breaking changes against our codebase

Approach

  1. Create a feature branch
  2. Update typescript to ^6.0.2 in package.json
  3. Run pnpm install
  4. Fix any build errors from breaking changes
  5. Run full test suite
  6. Run lint

Notes

Discovered during dependency bump on 2026-03-29. No security implications — this is a planned ecosystem upgrade.
