The problem is that only Deno can type check single file scripts. Otherwise with Node and Bun you need a project to use tsc. Python can type check single file scripts (even with PEP 723 deps) with ty. Otherwise, I love TS for scripting, especially with Bun shell

Fair point. If I'm writing scripts, I normally opt for a JS file with JSDoc annotations if I want autocomplete for types (you don't need a tsconfig/tsc installed in WebStorm). Most projects I've encountered with TS scripts were already TS projects to begin with.
