Using @typescript/native-preview instead of shims

[alexwork1611]

Hello,

First of all, thanks for opening up the discussions!

So, can someone please explain how hard it would be to use @typescript/native-preview as a dependency in this project (in https://github.com/oxc-project/tsgolint/blob/main/package.json)?

I know this may be a little insensitive to ask from my end, but I could not find a definitive discussion that covers this topic.

Thanks!

All of the code is in Go, so such a thing is not possible unless there's a working API shipped in the main package, which there isn't yet, and would potentially incur a performance penalty.

(Why do you ask?)

Hello Jake,

Thanks for taking the time to answer this. You're right; there would be a performance penalty if we were to use the @typescript/native-preview package. Thanks for clarifying that.

How's it going with the native port?

By the way, nice new profile pic! Haha

P.S.: I was asking because I was curious whether using the tsgo binary would be beneficial in terms of performance.
