Description

Bug Report

I was unable to find any documentation on what versions of TypeScript are "supported." I realize that is a loosely defined term, what I mean is this: If a security vulnarability was found in TypeScript, which versions would be patched?

Right now, it's impossible to know what the minimum version of TypeScript we should be using in order to be ready for any security patches that could be issued.

Research direction

Start by reviewing the issue's request for a documented TypeScript support and security-patching policy; no file, test, or documentation entry point is named. Confirm which versions would receive security fixes, then document that policy in the project's appropriate documentation location once maintainers provide or approve it.
