Deno: Cannot run file without extension (.ts or .js)

[davidnguyen179]

So I have structure of app like this

index.ts
package.json

package.json

worked

{
  "scripts": {
    "test": "deno run index.ts"
  }
}

not working

{
  "scripts": {
    "test": "deno run index.ts"
  }
}

I am not sure that whether or not deno will support execute script without extension name in the future.

1. package.json is part of Node.js stack, not Deno.
2. Deno doesn't support imports without the extension name.

import { x } from "./test.ts"; // works
import { x } from "./test"; // won't

It won't, or it would already. Duplicate of #2506.

(off-topic: I think this should be in the list of FAQ)

[davidnguyen179]

should it be somewhere in documentation? I think many JS developers have the same concern.

@davidnguyen179 Technically is more directed towards Node users, JS users are aware of this

A common asked question section would be cool!
