I am migrating a project from javascript to typescript and was reading several blogs to understand how could I go about doing that. I wonder why do so many blogs use compileOptions
instead of compilerOptions
. On the official guide/docs I only find the later. My guess is older versions of typescript expected compileOptions
and it was later renamed, however I am unable to find any source to confirm that from any source/docs.

"_why do so many blogs use `compileOptions` instead of `compilerOptions`_": To which URLs do you refer? – jsejcksn May 29 '22 at 04:58

I don't have enough info to be positive, but there are plenty of typos all over the internet, and I think this is an instance of that. Here are indexed queries on GitHub of the repository [code](https://github.com/microsoft/TypeScript/search?q=%22compileOptions%22&type=code) and [issues](https://github.com/microsoft/TypeScript/search?q=%22compileOptions%22&type=issues) for that string. It seems like a typo to me. – jsejcksn May 29 '22 at 05:05
