Introduction To answer the title’s questions, it’s because no extra configuration is required for tsup! I have previously talked about how we can get a typescript projected started with tsup, typescript and express. I have also mentioned that we did not configure tsconfig.json, so let us tackle this part with path aliases! Note that for…
