How to build a nodejs app with typescript and ESmodules without webpack and babel

Question

I have a nodejs app, that is meant to run locally in my mac, not in a browser. I want to use typescript, compile it, and run the script.

Here is the code:

// package.json
{
  "type": "module",
  "main": "index.js",
  "scripts": {
    "build": "rm -rf dist && yarn tsc"
  },
  "devDependencies": {
    "@types/node": "^20.5.3",
    "typescript": "^5.1.6"
  },
  "dependencies": {
    "pdf2json": "^3.0.4"
  }
}

I just want to import a service. In TS, the extension is not needed.

// index.ts

import { IdentifyFileUseCase } from './application/use-cases/IdentifyFile.useCase';

const identifyFileUseCase = new IdentifyFileUseCase()
identifyFileUseCase.execute()

when running

yarn build

I get in the dist/index.js

import { IdentifyFileUseCase } from './application/use-cases/IdentifyFile.useCase';
const identifyFileUseCase = new IdentifyFileUseCase();
identifyFileUseCase.execute();

since I told to be this ESmodules,

from './application/use-cases/IdentifyFile.useCase';

this path in the dist/index.js is wrong because .js extension is mandatory and my script crashes when running

node dist/index.js

This is the error:

node dist/index.js
node:internal/errors:484
    ErrorCaptureStackTrace(err);
    ^

}

Node.js v18.12.1

How can I make TS to compile ts into js with the right extension in the path?

I need webpack or can I avoid it?

is my tsconfig.json ok?
