docs: replace deprecated moduleResolution

[MarlonPassos-git]

Currently, in the recommendation documentation for tsconfig files, when setting

//...
"moduleResolution": "Node",
//.

a message appears indicating that this value is deprecated and recommends using Node10.

This pull request updates the documentation to recommend using the suggested setting.

Node10 also sounds like a very outdated value to me 🤔
IMO this should be replaced by a value that does not deprecate in a while next time again.

I personally use "Bundler" today, but this is due to I only use tsup, esbuild or Vite for my projects

[MarlonPassos-git]

@Shinigami92 I usually use NodeNext or node16. What are your thoughts on including something like this in the documentation:

"moduleResolution": "Node16", // "NodeNext" or "Bundler"

This way, users will have a range of compatible and non-deprecated options.

Does not sound wrong to me 👍

@faker-js/maintainers what's your thoughts about that?

We require at least node 18 so Node16 should be a safe value to use.
We could go for a modern value as well too.

We require at least node 18 so Node16 should be a safe value to use. We could go for a modern value as well too.

I think this is exactly the problem and not how that property works. It is totally confusing for persons that are not read into the details and just assume that the number after that means that.

Node10, Node16 and NodeNext are telling the TS compiler how imports should work. So e.g. more like CJS or ESM and if require, export = and import ('file.js') (.js suffix) are read and interpreted.

[ST-DDT]

All values we put there have side effects (maybe except node10 and less so for bundler).
Which values cause issues depends on the build tools the user is using.
e.g. Node16 causes issues for tsc, but neither for vue-tsc or vite.
Also there are limitations regarding the module flag as well.

"moduleResolution": "Node10", // "Node16", "NodeNext" or "Bundler"

That's why I consider using the more modern suggestion bundler (with the other values as comments).

"moduleResolution": "Bundler", // "Node10", Node16" or "NodeNext"

I couldn't find any limitations regarding that option except for node16 and ts5 (matching our requirements), but I found hints at other incompatibilities such as tooling and backwards compatibility, but I was unable to fully grasp them.

EDIT: If we are going for the least likely values to break, then those are only node10 and bundler and not NodeNext.
EDIT2: We can likely remove the esInterop property as well

[MarlonPassos-git]

I like this:

"moduleResolution": "Bundler", // "Node10", Node16" or "NodeNext"

EDIT: Now about removing esInterop, you're in charge. I can update the pr with this modification too

You might have to change the code highlighting to jsonc or something.
