Each lane is one minor: beta to release candidate to stable, then patch ticks. The number is days from first prerelease to stable.The 7.x lanes are the Go port.

TypeScript 7.0 shipped on 8 July 2026. It is the compiler and language service ported to Go, and the team calls it 10x faster. The 7.0.2 release on microsoft/TypeScript is a pointer: its notes say the tag "was originally released at" microsoft/typescript-go.

Every minor from 5.4 to 6.0 went beta, release candidate, stable. Beta to stable took 23 to 56 days. The longest wait between stables was 235 days, from 5.9 to 6.0, the release meant to be the last on the JavaScript codebase. 7.1 beta followed on 20 October.

As of 24 October 2026.

The 7.0 release thread, 8 July 2026.

TypeScript@typescript

We know people will still need TS 6 for API usage.
That's why there's a new `@typescript/typescript6` package that provides
- the TypeScript 6 API
- a separate `tsc6` binary
Install it side-by-side with TypeScript 7, and don't worry about conflicts with `tsc`.

Code that needs the old compiler API stays on TypeScript 6 through a separate package.
