Description

just-scripts and just-task will require a major bump soon to allow continued security updates to dependencies.

  • Update engines.node to >=22.18.0
  • Update dependencies
  • Enable esModuleInterop
  • Update docs to indicate current status of project, why we mostly recommend lage instead, and avoiding footguns of just config setup (must delay load deps) if people still want to use it
  • #702
  • Consider removing deprecated stuff (focusing on things that are dangerous or significantly in the way)
  • Major bump packages: align versions to v3 for clarity, and update beachball config to disallow major bumps

Research direction

Start by reviewing the package engine and dependency settings, TypeScript's esModuleInterop configuration, the documentation, deprecated configuration, and Beachball versioning rules mentioned in the checklist. Done means the packages align on v3, require Node >=22.18.0, document the project's status and configuration footguns, and prevent unintended major bumps.
