## File extensions

By default, TypeScript files are defined as:

```
[file_types.typescript]
globs = ["*.ts", "*.mts", "*.cts"]
interpreters = ["ts-node", "deno"]

[file_types.tsx]
globs = ["*.tsx", "*.mtsx", "*.ctsx"]
```

These patterns can be overridden from `qlty.toml`.

## Supported TypeScript versions

We officially support TypeScript 3.0 and later for maintainability checks and code coverage. Each plugin may have its own version requirements.
