Can I request a new setting such as `configFileText`?

Because the compilerOptions.module in the project’s tsconfig.json is set to amd, and compilerOptions.outFile is set.

When using webpack for packaging, I can’t override the outFile setting in the compilerOptions, because webpack is packaged with commonjs by default.

I know I can add a different tsconfig.json file and set the options.configFile at the same time to solve this problem. Or set webpack to amd module as well.

But I would like to have a way to reuse the original tsconfig.json and also use the default module settings of webpack.

Because tsc’s outFile only supports amd/system mode. I coded an amd module loader(a define function), and I can import this file via files in tscconfig.json. But I don’t think this feature is mature enough to put in realase version.

Webpack is powerful and can package all the source code into one file with commonjs module, but amd’s define function is not natively supported by webpack.

Thanks for your patient answer. I’m going to follow: https://www.snowpack.dev/
