I was about to say exactly this. If you’re writing Node scripts there’s no reason to use ts-node as tsx, by default, does the correct thing and works correctly with ES modules.

Of course, Deno offers a better experience for scripts or programs.

I tried `tsx` but it didn't work for some reason (can't remember why right now). Also, if you've been using `ts-node` and feel comfortable with it, this setup should work for you instead of switching your toolchain.

tsx v4 was released a couple weeks ago which addressed many incompatibility issues. Hope you have a chance to give it another shot :)
