Well, of course. But TSC output (transpiled JS source code) is then run by a JS runtime like Node that has a VM like V8 that makes an internal representation for the JS code. Using Bun or Deno allows you to go to a VM IR from the TypeScript directly without a need for TSC transpilation into JS first.
But as @keturakis pointed out (thanks!), Deno/Bun still rely on TSC, which I was not aware of.
Bun doesn't even support a way to check types, just remove them.
> Note — Similar to other build tools, Bun does not typecheck the files. Use tsc (the official TypeScript CLI) if you're looking to catch static type errors.
