Description
Current ecosistem extensively relies in the compiler API, vue, vite, angular, even react is now optimising reactivity as well as many other tools for runtypes like typia, deepkit and my ion rpc based framework [mion](https://github.com/MionKit/mion)
There was a proposal for a transformers plugin but has been now removed now. https://github.com/microsoft/TypeScript/issues/54276#issuecomment-2717407221
My understanding is that now the js interaction and API is way more complicated as we have to bind JS and Go, so assuming this will be implemented last if so.
So opening this Issue to track the progress or at least heard some feedback from the Typescript team about the future of this or should those tooling be looking into migrating to go as well ?
