Proposal - Module Interface about typescript HOT 6 CLOSED

Note that the module keyword is on the edge of being deprecated: #57913

To me this just sounds like a duplicate of #420, just an alternative approach (which usually does not warrant a new issue and should be a comment). Both issues are about the very same problem.

@DanielRosenwasser should I comment this proposal in #420?

Yeah, I'd try to keep discussion there going forward.

module is only being deprecated as an alias for namespace, right? This looks like ESM which isn't going anywhere.

Well, I guess this syntax is a bit confusing as it's neither an internal module nor ESM...

module implements UserModuleInterface {
  export async function getUser(id) {}
  export async function createUser() {}
}

The rest appears to be ESM.

@snarbies I just need to say that that specific module is implementing an interface. I don't know if the suggested syntax is good or not, but it was the only thing that came to mind at the moment =)

And yes: the proposal is to maintain the ESM syntax, and just add module interface and module implements to improve type checking in functions without the need for a class or object, and also without adding anything at runtime .

It does feel like #420 roughly captures what's being described here, so I'm going to mark this as a duplicate.
